Their life of crime changes the day they find a lone orphan little girl named Tiffany and decide to shelter her.The story was adapted into an American animated short by Gene Deitch in 1972, then into a German feature animated film in 2007.

Inexplicably Identical Individuals: The three robbers all look identical, and there's no mention of them being triplets, let alone brothers.

Weapon-Based Characterization: Each one of the robbers has a distinctive weapon: one has a bellows to blow pepper into the eyes of the coaches' horses, another has a big red double sided axe to demolish the coaches' wheels, and the third has a blunderbuss to threaten the travellers in order to rob them.

Orphanage of Love: The castle the robbers buy to house the orphans that they find becomes one. The kids are so well treated that, once they're adults and come to found a city, they build three big towers the roofs of which have the same shape as the robbers' hats to honor their memory.
