Lucy Coleman

Lucy "Hot Lou" Coleman was born in New Lyeford in 1534. According to legend, she left home at the age of twelve after having killed a man who had insulted her mother. She spent her teenage years in saloons and gambling halls throughout western Saldonia, and according to rumor killed several men before she was 16. Until she reached Suicide Bluff in Delcova Territory, however, her early years are shrouded in mystery and speculation, although she was known to have used the alias "Linda Coles" for some of this time.
After her stint with the Suicide Bluff Posse, Coleman offered to turn state's evidence on the murderers of Travis Webb, a lawyer hired by Samuel Woods' wife Belle to settle the dead man's estate. In exchange, she would be let free. In a private meeting with Hot Lou, Governor Ricky Mills agreed. Things were going as planned until, after testifying, Coleman lost faith in the Governor's promise of freedom and escaped.
In 1555, Coleman's old friend, Deanna Green, was elected sheriff of Suicide Bluff and ordered to bring her in. She captured her on the banks of the Urah River near the end of the year. Dirty Jake Hudson, who was riding with Coleman, was killed in the exchange.
Coleman was sentenced to hang, but she managed to break out of jail four months later, in time to escape the gallows. She somehow got her hands on a gun, shot the guard and took off into the desert night - as daring an escape as there ever was. Green was ordered to bring her in once again.
Along with her two deputies, Ronald Wright and Nap McCoomb, Green caught up with Coleman at Fort Colton in the early summer of this year. In the early morning hours, she shot someone in the dark. That person was buried before sunrise at a funeral attended only by Green and her deputies. The marker read "Lucy Coleman".
The circumstances surrounding Coleman's death and subsequent burial are odd. First of all, Green and her men were the only witnesses to the incident. Second, most times when a famous outlaw was killed, his body was put on display in a public place for several days. Green claimed that the reason she buried Coleman so quickly was that she had too much respect for "Hot Lou" to leave her corpse out for people to gawk at.
Did Hot Lou Coleman die that night in Fort Colton? Or was someone else buried in her place?
