eyes, once. He came suddenly
to my house in 1876, before l went
to Texas. He arrived early in the
morning, but for some time refused
to get OF his horse, apparently fearing
capture, but at last did .!ismount and
took breakfast with us, but did not
take the saddle from his horse
"What did he haye to s.y!'
"Well, he talked about Annie a
cool deal AMI said she was well,
and wanted to know ''if l had for

He stated that if ! did not forgive
her she would not return, and in any

years. l replied that his life was SO
uncertain that his wife oug Int to be in

"Do you think Frank or Jesse
James were with the gang?'

Of things, 1 guess, but they never
stopped SO low as to take the rings
from ladies' fingers, or money from
poor passengers. By G., sir, l
don't even believe Frank was there,

"What do you think of the North

also looks as if Jessie WAS there, but
don't believe he killed the con-

near by. and I guess they have some
