This is a mission you can start by approaching Micah Bell in Strawberry, and unlocks after completing A Quiet Time.

Begin by entering the jail at Strawberry.

You'll find Micah round the side of the building, at the barred window.

To set him free, use the Steam Donkey contraption opposite. Pull the winch, attach it to the window, then use the machine to pull the window out of the wall.

Now you must shoot your way out of the town. As usual, using the mini-map makes it much clearer to see the adversaries around you, allowing you to gain cover and flank.

After a pitstop and working your way around the town, you'll get on your horses and leave. More guards will give chase. It's well worth slowing down and shooting these, as if you leave them, they will continue to give chase and mow you down faster than you realise.

Eventually no more will follow. Continue following Micah until he stops and ends the mission. You'll get a second holster - which is the good news - but a huge bounty on the town of Strawberry - which is very bad news. Unless you're rolling in it it's difficult to pay off, so we recommend ignoring it for now and continuing with the story and other activities.
