Horace Bragg

Lieutenant Colonel Sir Horace Bragg was the head of the Royal American Mounted Police and to who Colonel Thomas Bushell reported by telephone the night the Sons of Liberty stole The Two Georges. Bragg ordered Bushell to concentrate on recovering the painting and to leave the investigation of the murder of "Honest" Dick to the local constabulary.

Sir Bragg was born in the Province of North Carolina from a long line of Carolinians and was know to speak in a back-woods accent when under great stress. He and Bushell were friends and had known each other from their early twenties when both were subalterns in the Royal North American Army.
