Several years after Gettysburg, MacReady became a preacher in Ratwater. When the cowboy arrived in search for medicine, MacReady confronted him. He told him he had recognized him but couldn't remember from where. Once he told the Cowboy he believed he knew who he was, he was knocked down. MacReady followed the Cowboy to the backroom and knocked the cowboy as payback and had his men stomp on him. Later, MacReady told the cowboy he recognized him from Gettysburg. Upset that the cowboy had killed many of his men and horses then, he killed the cowboy's horse as payback.[2]
When The Cowboy returned to Ratwater, MacReady welcomed The Cowboy, so long he welcomed Jesus. The Cowboy however, dumped the heads of several children on the ground and told them that Jesus could join them in Hell. MacReady plead to The Cowboy, asking him what he wanted.
