Revealing mistakes

The small boy paralyzed from the waist down due to a back broken in a stagecoach rollover is subjected to far more bouncing and jostling during recovery from surgery than he could have possibly survived.



Plot holes

Without telegraph access, there's no way Lambert could have communicated with his stooges from other places to set up his switches before the real people notified by wire would have gotten on the Denver stage.
