HISTORY OF THE STOFER CASE

worthless checks were issued by
him and it was deemed time to
stop it.
Last Saturday Deputy Sheriff
E. j. H. Roy, w. Fred Ogden and
w. Frank Walkowiak went down
to Mosquero after him. He was
missing, and they learned that he
had hired Phil Miller to drive
him out of town. Phil reported
to them that they started first
for Roy, then Stofer decided to
go to Albert, and finally Phil got
disgusted and left him at the
Mitchell home in the Pleasant
View neighborhood. The posse
returned from Mosquero and
went out again after him, locat-
ing him at the Homer Parks
claim, l3 miles east, at 3 o'clock
Sunday morning, where he was
purporting to be land inspector.
After getting lost on the prairie
in the dark and waiting for day
light, the party returned to Roy
with their prisoner Sunday
morning. He begged for more
time to telegraph relatives. The
mythical sister never material
lied, and a wire from his father
was to the effect that he need ex-
pect no aid from him, and in
cluded a,pointer that he (Stofer)
was apt to think himself a million
aire~if he had few dollars in bis
pocket.
Stofer was given preliminary
hearing before Justice Foster
Thursday and held to await the
action of the Mora county grand
jury under a 100000 bond,
which he made no effort to fur
nish. He was taken to Mora
Friday and placed in charge o1
Sheriff Gaudert, where he will
have ample time to think upor
the error of his way.
The Spanish American. [volume] (Roy, Mora Co., N.M.) 19??-19??, 1911-07-15

Most of the citizens of Roy and
vicinity have heard of one R. T.
Stofer, who has occupied the
center of the sensational stage in
Roy the past two weeks. For
the entertainment and amuse-
ment of our readers we review
the history of his short and me-
teoric career. He was first heard
from on this mesa as editor of
the Mosquero Sun, and associated
with Benz. F. Brown of the Mos
quero Land Co. This of course
gave him local prestige, and he at
once began to enlarge until foc a
time it seemed that he was soon
to absorb and control everything
on the mesa.
Some two weeks since he came
to Roy and made a bluff at buy
ing or leasing the Spanish-Amer,
ican. We lodged him, and he
then undertook to buy the Fair
view Pharmacy from Dr.. Gibbs,
and put up the price of an in
voice in the bank. The prepare
tions of sale were completed,
but the price of it did not come.
Several stories of a sister who
was a paragon of wealth and
beauty and also a physician were
given out by Stofer, and more or
less credited by some, especially
by the young: men of Roy who
developed some alarming symp.
toms but the cash didn't come.
Being hard pressed, he began is
suing checks on the Roy bank
and other banks. By this time
many had him sized up as a joke,
dope fiend, lunatic or some othel
kind of pervert, and were watch
ing his moves carefully. 1t wa:
thought that there was some
thing back of him, and he was
given plenty of rope. Finally al
aggregate of over $500 90 il

VIM. WRIGHT DEAD

VIM. Wright died at his home
in Roy Thursday, July 18th, at
o'clock a. m., aged AZ years, 5
months and 20 days.
Deceased was born at Albany,
Indiana, January. 23, 1864. He
has been a resident of Roy for
the past three years. He was a
blacksmith by trade and ran a
shop here until recently when
sickness ended his activities. He
leaves faithful wife and three
children. Death resulted from a
complication of diseases superin-
duced and fostered by an advanc-
ed stage of habitual inebriation.
The family is left in destitute
circumstances, and the funeral
expenses were met by subscrip-
ton by the citizehs of the town;
another instance of the true
Western spirit that cherishes
the memory of his good deeds
and buries his imperfections be-
meath the clods that hide his re-
mains from mortal view.
