Any resident of 1hi section who has a mind tor such will be greatly in terested in making this motor trip between the two rail heads, for thei.' he will see some of the heav iest railroad construction and it will bring home to him the faith the railroad must have in tne peo. himself on at least a half dozen direct questions in the courso of his long slay on the stand.

Only three others of the 200 hard-riding, vengeful desperadoes are alive today, and these were too far away or too feeble to attend. Rut to Tyler Burns and J. -Hicks George the reminiscences were Just as gory and exciting as ever. It was during the early '60s that Quantrell and his men, adventureous renegades, recruiting from the ranks of the blue and gray, spread death and terror among the "damned Yan kees" along the Missouri-Kansas bor der. They killed in the name ot the confederacy. They looted because there wore generally no survivors to oppose them.
