The Committee on Credentials

In an attempt to protect the welfare of Clem's wife, Ballarat Bob takes Clem's savings and puts them in safe keeping with Clem's wife. This makes Clem think that his wife is having an affair; he goes on to shoot up the town and eventually ends up in a confrontation with Bob.^[1]
