Abigail Marston's Missions

Abigail Marston's Missions

(West Elizabeth Walkthrough)

Complete 'And the Truth Will Set You Free' in Agent Ross's mission line and then make your way to Marston's ranch in Beecher's Hope.

The Outlaw's Return

All of the cattle have died while Marston was out, so you'll have to visit the MacFarlane's at their ranch to purchase some more.

Get on your horse and start following the yellow line on the Mini Map toward MacFarlane's Ranch. When you reach the ranch, meet Bonnie in the corral to start herding your new cattle. Herd the cattle out of the pen and then drive them to the river. Remember that you can press up on the D-pad when behind the herd to drive them faster.

The river is shallow enough for your horses and cattle to cross. Drive the herd across the river and then continue toward Beecher's Hope. Keep an eye on your Mini Map for stragglers on the way there.

The river is shallow enough for your horses and cattle to cross.

You'll encounter some cattle rustlers on horseback just outside of Beecher's Hope. You'll fail the mission if most of the cattle are killed, so work quickly. Take out the cattle rustlers with your Bolt Action or Springfield Rifle, then gather any stragglers and continue driving the herd toward the ranch.

Herd all of the remaining cattle into the pen and then hitch your horse to the hitching post to complete the mission.

Pestilence

The crows are after your corn! Scare them away from the silo to preserve your supply. 'Scaring them away' entails continuously shooting down crows until the rest of the flock flies away to bother someone else.

You must keep the crows from completely depleting the 'Corn Remaining' meter at the top of the screen, otherwise you'll fail the mission.

Shoot down crows to protect the supply of corn.

Fire at the silo once and the crows perched on it will take flight. The Bolt Action Rifle and Cattleman Revolver are good weapons for this task. Auto-aim is a huge help here; just keeping tapping LT/L2 and then RT/R2 to lock on and shoot down crows. For overkill, you can activate Dead Eye and tag a bunch of crows to shoot them all down.

Old Friends, New Problems

This mission consists of a trip to MacFarlane's Ranch and back. There's a timer at the top of the screen on the way there, but MacFarlane's Ranch is not far and you are given plenty of time. Once you've watched the cutscene at MacFarlane's Ranch, drive the wagon back to Beecher's Hope to complete the mission.
