Frank Depps

Frank Depps was the mayor of Walsonville, Ohio. He was discussing the capture of Firecracker with Judge Jonathan Johnson when Firecracker arrived at the Walsonville Courthouse, kidnapped Judge Johnson, and destroyed the courthouse with Mayor Depps inside.

Mayor Depps had one son, Matthew, who was a detective with the Walsonville Police Department. After Mayor Depps was murdered, Matthew Depps became obsessed with the capture of Firecracker in the spirit of avenging his father's death. Firecracker escaped during his trial and killed Detective Depps, saying, "Say hello to the mayor for me," before shooting Matthew.

Frank Depps's successor in the office of mayor was James Valentine.
