I understand that the comrade was playing a poker game, and the man sat into the game and used such language that Comrade Ritchie had to shoot.

Comrade Webb has killed two men in Beaver, Arizona.

Comrade Webb is in the Forest Service, and the killing was in the line of professional duty.

I was out at the penitentiary the other day and saw Comrade Gritto, who, you may remember, was put there for shooting his sister-in-law [this was the first information I had had as to the identity of the lady who was shot in the eye].

Since he was in there Comrade Boyne has run off to old Mexico with his (Gritto's) wife, and the people of Grant County think he ought to be let out." Evidently the sporting instincts of the people of Grant County had been roused, and they felt that, as Comrade Boyne had had a fair start, the other comrade should be let out in order to see what would happen.
The men of the regiment always enthusiastically helped me when I was running for office.
