Evans years ago, where William L.
Carlisle was born.
After leaving Evans, the Carlisles
moved to Loveland, where they resided
for years, and where the bandit grew
to manhood. After leaving Loveland
they moved to Texas, where the
father died and where the mother and
sister to whom he claims to have
sent the money now reside.
According to Briggs and .McAfee

term in the penitentiary for forgery.

son of Adolph Donath in a dispute
over girl.
