He masterminded the largest train robbery of the early 1900's. His father had married a woman, supposed to be a Creek Indian, who was the daughter of a Freedman slave of the Creek Nation. His father had run Thorn and his sister off from home because he didn't want anything to do with having half Black children. Thorns adventures and holdups, that he was involved in, up to the 1910. He found what he thought was true love, bought a homestead, and built the nicest house in fifty miles. Then the heart breaking news of her marrying another man. Thorn found his name and the names of several of his friends on the wanted posters when the State of Oklahoma tried to get rid of the stigma of having a haven for outlaws.

Changing his name, not carrying a gun, he still found trouble and not from bounty hunters. People trying to run off the homesteaders of the area where Thorn settled. He finally found the true love of his life and also turned in his old life of crime to being a County Sheriff.
