Dès que Monty est entré, en supposant qu'il allait être interrogé sur la raison pour laquelle il est venu à un tel endroit et s'il était dans sa bonne tête, il a été approché par un gentleman qui lui a posé comme question sur l'achat d'un cigare et du tabac. Monty a eu quelques rancards avec des hommes blancs, s'il y en avait un dont il pourrait parler. Et avec cet homme qui s'approchait de lui comme un client commun, Monty a gelé un moment et a légèrement incliné sa tête vers cette nouvelle approche. Il pouvait dire que cet homme n'avait pas l'air d'être du sud, mais il était un peu content que cet homme ait été assez gentil pour lui offrir quelque chose.
Monty a répondu : « Non merci, monsieur. Pas de disprespeck... mais je suis un ah bukah que smokah". Il allait lui demander quelque chose jusqu'à ce que quelqu'un appelle son nom. Monty regarda pour remarquer un homme derrière le bar et parler avec l'accent inhabituel. Monty l'a déjà entendu, mais il n'a pas pu mettre son doigt sur qui c'était. Il s'est approché de l'homme au bar et a regardé. On s'est rencontrés à Befo', c'est ça? il a demandé à l'homme. avec sa guitare encore attachée à son dos et essayant de braquer la vue des armes sur ses étuis, Monty voulait descendre au fond de la façon dont cet homme le connaissait.

Backstory -
Monty was born to a mandingo fighting slave and a breeding type comfort girl slave. Being born into slavery in the Evans Plantation, Monty was raised there until he was bought at age 5 to be property of Eustace Ward. Eustace was considered what other slaves called, a slave breaker, making them do inhumane things for entertainment. Monty from the age of 8 started off in the Jr. Mandingo fighting to earn his master some betting money to which he was quite proficient in doing.
Throughout his years of being part of the Ward plantation, not only did he handle labor and fight, his taste of music piqued when he noticed another slave playing a guitar, in which he wanted to learn to play himself. Having such talent helped him to gain more favor with his master but his family made his life difficult with set ups and lies that cost him privileges and earned him beatings.
later when the civil war started and the fact that Monty couldn't handle being part of the Ward plantation anymore, he ran away to get free and looked to go to the north. While Monty was being searched for by Ward's men, Monty ran into a Quaker and former bounty hunter, George Sharp, who hid and and took care of Monty from age 13 on up.
George taught Monty a little of reading a writing and when the time came, shooting. After a few years living with George and his family, increasing his skills of music and learning to defend himself, Monty later when to travel to make a living. The Civil war was over and there were many changes. Running into a small town that the now, free slaves own, Monty witnessed one night, terror with a group of men wearing white bags on their heads, shooting the people and burning the town down.
Because of the war ending, many southern former slave owner have taken it upon themselves to cause as much pain and terror to former slaves to put them back in their places but that was until Monty decided to do something about it when a woman he liked was hung. From what he learned from his teacher, George, he took it upon himself to find these men and to make them pay for what they've done.
Monty did manage to find them in another town and took justice in his own hands to not just kill off but to scare the others to not come back. He nearly got himself killed but after doing so, Monty thought about getting into the line of work including bounty hunting. Since then, Monty have been traveling and making money either by his music or killing.
