You'll find Gwyn at the back of the undertaker's house in Rhodes. Of course he doesn't have any money, but he has an idea how to get it and asks you to go with him to the cemetery.
Follow him to a nearby church located on a hill. Gwyn will tell you that he is going to dig up one of the graves and take out the valuables buried with the person who died.
Before he can start digging up a grave, Arthur must get rid of the nearby townsfolk. A couple talking to each other by the stairs should be treated harshly and chased away.
For the lady at the grave you should be nice.
Go back to Gwyn, who should be waiting for you in front of the church and inform him that he can start his work.
Your task will be to make sure that he is not disturbed by anyone.
You must now guard the entrance to the churchyard. The woman, who wants to enter the cemetery, should be treated in a nice way.
The two guys who'll come shortly afterwards will have to be stopped by force. You have to beat them in a fistfight.
When you defeat the two guys, check out what's up with Gwyn who's digging up the grave at the back of the church. Gwyn found what he was looking for.
Collect the diamond brooch he found in the grave and his debt will be considered repaid.
Winton Holmes sleeps by the fire in his camp located north of Strawberry. Come to him and wake him up. Of course he doesn't have any money, but if you help him hunt for a white cougar, he'll get the funds he needs for you. Arthur agrees to this arrangement.
Get on your horse and follow Winton until you reach the cave where the cougar should be.
Get off your horse and follow Winton into the cave. It will be dark in the cave so you should use a lantern.
When you get to the fork, you'll split up. Winton will go left and you should go right.
At some point you will hear gunshots and screams coming from the left side of the cave.
Go to the left side of the cave. There you will find the body of Winton, who did not survive an encounter with a cougar.
Watch the mini-map carefully. When the red dot appears, quickly turn in the right direction, activate Dead Eye and shoot the cougar several times to kill it before it gets to you.
The come up to the animal and skin it.
Leave the cave, stow the pelt on your horse and go to Strawberry.
In Strawberry, find a butcher and sell him the pelt. This way Winton's debt will be recovered.
To completely finish this mission, put the recovered debts back in the camp tithing box.
