Boodle Land

Two towns, Verona and Promontory, want to be the county seat. Which town gets the seat will get the county government, the chance for a railroad, and hope for the future. The town that doesn't get the seat might not exist in six months or a year. This desire will spark a rivalry between the towns that will last for years.

Magickers won't decide the outcome. Neither will gunfighters or the Army. No, the battle will be waged at the ballot box, in civil court, and in the columns of the towns' newspapers. Which town will prove itself, and which will be nothing but a "boodle town?"
