"Affairs On The Texas Frontier.- ..."The road is lined with movers from the different frontier counties, who have at last determined to quit the country and seek protection in the older states, where they can at least know that they are free from the annoyances they have been subjected too."

Chief, this reminds me of "The Searchers", when the Duke's neice was captured by the Comanche. He had just returnd from the War, so the troubles kept up until Quanah Parker surrendered in 1875. I always felt that, even though the story was fictitious, it reflected the times. your newspaper accounts bear this out. Thanks for doing them. Stan
