Indexer Notes

Jim Vadebonceour, Jr Notes: "previous indexer credited Joe Sinnott pencils and inks."

Features western lawman William Barclay "Bat" Masterson (1853-1921), apparently during his 1877-79 tenure as sheriff of Ford Co., Kansas. Error: He is referred to as “old” and “grandpappy” though at the time he left office he was only 25 years old. (Note by Tom Lammers)
