Little Joe POD ~ 9/27/21-10/02/21 ~ The Hanging Posse

Post by Sierras »

(I am fascinated with the relationship of Joe and Adam. I love some JAMs. Joe's feelings toward his family run deep, and he has a strong sense of justice. Adam is wise, and he notices all of the details of what is really going on. I believe if someone were to study their relationship a good place to start is "The Hanging Posse" from the first season. So this week we'll be taking a look at this episode through the eyes of Joe. Enjoy!)


Monday


We see all 4 Cartwrights in the general store/mercantile. This is the episode where Hoss buys a bag of candy and ends up giving it to a little boy, and Ben says something about not wanting any of his sons to look like a riverboat gambler. Ben and Hoss leave while Joe and Adam stay in town for Joe to get his haircut.

Next the body of a murdered woman is brought into town by her husband, Flint Johnson. He says 3 men were seen riding away. Adam mentions that it doesn't necessarily mean they were the ones who did it.

Later Deputy Sheriff Jeb Clanton asks Joe and Adam to join the posse that Flint is having put together. The scout will be Paiute Scroggs. Joe and Adam agree to join the posse ~ with reservations of what it may turn into.

The posse leaves to look for the killers ...
