I'm its recent report of the Lock
EFT case it seems that the TIMES had
been misinformed as to the fact of
Yves Hudson and Lockett being
members of the Casey gang in Okla
homa. Neither had been members
previous to the time they were COM
missioned deputy marshals for the
purpose of capturing Casey, the
leader of the gang, and they Joined
for that purpose alone The re-
cords show this, and we have no de-
sire to be unfair, even with men
who are charged with high crimes.
The relatives of Hudson here are all
highly respected people, honorable
and law abiding, and deserve the
sympathy rather than criticism OF
their neighbors in the present un-
| fortunate situation.
