If you can find him, up near Sugar Loaf ?
### Inquiring About Thomas Red Feather
As the conversation shifted toward action, Holmes decided it was time to bring up Thomas Red Feather, a figure Chuck was familiar with.
#### The Introduction of Thomas Red Feather
*“Sheriff Kapp,”* Holmes began, *“we’ve heard mention of a man named Thomas Red Feather. Chuck here knows him well. We were told he could guide us closer to our destination.”*
Kapp’s expression changed slightly, a hint of recognition crossing his face.
*“Red Feather is a knowledgeable man. He has connections with various groups in the area and understands the dynamics at play. If anyone can help you navigate the situation, it’s him.”*
Chuck nodded enthusiastically.
*“I’ve known Thomas for years. He’s been a reliable source of information, especially about the mines and the people involved.”*
#### The Repairs on Chuck's Truck
Holmes noticed Chuck's anxious demeanor and shifted the topic slightly.
*“Before we set out to find Red Feather, I believe you mentioned needing repairs on your truck?”*
Chuck sighed, glancing at the truck parked outside the facility.
*“Yes, I need to fix a couple of mirrors and the running lights. It’s been a rough ride, and I can’t afford to have any issues while we’re out there.”*
Phillips chimed in, *“I can have some of my men take a look at it. We’ve got tools and parts here. It shouldn’t take long to get it back in shape.”*
#### Planning the Next Steps
Kapp nodded in agreement.
*“That’s a good idea. You’ll need a reliable vehicle if you’re heading into potentially dangerous territory.”*
Holmes added, *“While the repairs are being made, we should gather any information we can about Thomas Red Feather’s whereabouts. We may need to act swiftly.”*
Chuck felt a sense of relief at the support from Phillips and Kapp.
*“I appreciate it, gentlemen. I’ll get the truck sorted, and then we can head out to find Thomas.”*
