Butchie

Butchie was the bodyguard of Thomas Harlow known for his remarkable strength. He died in a fight with Colton White in 1863 with a shot to numerous body parts.

Info
The first appearance of Butchie is at the end of the second mission in the game, "Morning Star". Reverend Josiah Reed returns to report to his boss Thomas Harlow that his mission was failed and because of that Butchie was tasked to hold Josiah's head steady on the table while "Magruder" cut his right ear off as a punishment all the while laughing sadistically.

Sometime later, Butchie reappears alongside his boss Magruder when he assumes that Colton White and the safecracker named Jennings' goal was to get to the safe that was still on board the drowned Morning Star steamboat. Wanting to get the item in the safe first for the sake of finding Quivira, Tom orders Reed to get the item in the safe himself and alarms Sergeant Hollister and his men to stop White and the safecracker.

Following the death of Reed at the hands of Cole, Butchie returns later with a piece of the Reverend's dress to show evidence of his death. Magruder then reaches his boiling point and rages all around his room, demanding Colton's head for any price there is and even pushes Butchie away. Sometime later, Hollister is also killed by White.

After the capture of Jennings by Butchie himself, Magruder begins to interrogate and torture the safecracker back on his train to receive some information on the City of Gold. After having three fingers blown off, Jennings reveals the true location of Quivira and then escapes before Butchie and Harlow could finish him off. Butchie chases after Soapy along with various subordinates and the remaining men of Hollister, until he sees Jennings had already come across Cole White.

Death
Going back on the board of his master's train and manoeuvring a cannon while hoping Hollister's men would take care of Colton, Butchie was actually confronted by Cole himself after finishing off the Confederates.

Despite his strength, Butchie was no match for Colton's bullets to the stomach, leg and head.

Personality and traits
Butchie is a very tall, strong and muscular man, even outnumbering the likes of Atlas Jones and Pig Josh. Perhaps even Sam.

Butchie promptly executes every order of his discipline, Thomas Harlow. He also never speaks, reasons unknown. Josiah Reed has been known to be very afraid of him, but then again, who wouldn't be afraid of such a giant of a man?

Trivia
