The Wild Rose Historical Society presents the 1905 Wild Rose Robbery Reenactment on Saturday, July 29th at 10:30 AM. It is a story about how four robbers came in on the train, robbed the post office and attempted to rob the bank. They walked out of town in the dark after the early morning robbery. A small posse found their trail and later a posse of 38 found them again in the late afternoon. There was a shoot out and one robber was killed and 2 wounded, the fourth robber surrendered after trying to escape. There is a connection to Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show and an unknown dead robber with no proper name. If you are related to any posse member we would especially love for you to attend. This is a list of the posse; Frank Clark. Jack Berens, Johnny Protheroe, Irving R. Nash, D.O. Jones, Rob Stevenson, Jeff Sage, Thomas H.
