Can someone tell me what the message said at the end please on last night's episode please, I couldn't tell what they said and there are no subtitles on TCM2.
I am guessing it was they won't send a doctor but I am not sure.
I thought I had better put it in spoilers just in case someone objects, thanks, Pete.

The note said
''This is to notify that Lt Winston will be arriving at Hell on Wheels immediately to execute Doc Whitehead as per orders from the President of the United States.''
He is going to be executed because he aided and abetted the robbers(Although you would expect a trial first?). Bohannan told Lily all the Doc did was hold the horses.

I think the telegram at the end would have made more sense if it read.... to execute the arrest of Doc Whitehead etc etc?
Cheers guy's makes sense now although there is a big difference between the two of you, why did they execute the robber who survived without a trial, was he one of the men who killed Bohannan's wife?
No, they killed him because he really, really deserved to die.:)
Cheers, I just thought there was a bit more to it because the other guy was showing Bohannan the robber's gun for some reason, as if there was something special about it.

Hiya MT.
Summary execution by order of the President? Bohannan had one against him. But Durant would get it waived if Cullen agreed to work for him. Hawkins had one and the Doc has one now. Are these orders based on historical fact. Or have the writers made this plotline up. Never heard of these kind of executive orders before. So it has me intrigued. Is it because they are all confederates and it's classed as a kind of treason. Or is it just because they are robbing trains.

He is in season 1, but in season 2 he doesn't seem to be a foreman as that job belongs to O'Toole.
