We continue the examination of the stable reduction and fields of moduli of $G$-Galois covers of the projective line over a complete discrete valuation field of mixed characteristic $(0,p)$, where $G$ has a $p$-Sylow subgroup $P$ of order $p^n$. Suppose further that the normalizer of $P$ acts on $P$ via an involution. Under mild assumptions, if $f:Y\to {\mathbb{P}}^1$ is a three-point $G$-Galois cover defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, then the $n$th higher ramification groups above $p$ for the upper numbering of the (Galois closure of the) extension...
