leeb,
The question was about one of Billy the Kid's girlfriend's. It was known to the public if you happen to have read the August 4, 1941 Life Magazine.

Clyde,
I was able to visit with Mr. Randolph today. Thank you for telling me about him. He wants to call me next week and visit with me more. This was a good call and the type I like. I will be able to meet him in person and he can show me what he has and I can show him what I have. I will keep you updated.
Thanks again. nmjames

Your welcome sir. Another interesting fellow you may want to talk to is Buck Bailey. Buck is the Grandson of Todd Bailey. Todd Bailey is the Nephew of Oliver Lee and most likely the man who shot and killed Pat Garrett.

clyde,
I know about Buck Bailey, Todd Bailey, Oliver Lee, Tom Tucker, Jim Miller and much more. I know someone that knows a lot about all of this and we have discussed it a few times. I have been researching for several years and know a person that is connected to the Oliver Lee family.
Thanks, nmjames

Did you know nmjames that according to Buck Bailey, his Grandfather Todd told the family that at the time Pat Garrett came to arrest Oliver Lee and the shootout occurred at the Windy Wells ranch, Billy the Kid was hiding out in a crawl space under the house? That is why Oliver Lee wrote a letter to Pat Garrett years later before Pat was killed telling him that he knew he did not kill the kid in Fort Sumner.

Clyde,
Yes I know all about this. Do you know who George McNew was? You can just answer yes or no. I will tell you I don't believe Todd Bailey killed Pat Garrett.
Do you know that it is said that four young men saw the killing of Pat Garrett and they told it just like what history says?
Thanks, nmjames

Clyde,
I just remembered something, The shootout occurred at Wildy Wells on July 12, 1898. Brushy said he was in Cuba with the Rough Riders. So are they saying Brushy was not Billy the Kid?

Clydec,
This is a statement made by Brazel that was in a newspaper March 7, 1908: Brazel stated that there were several eye witnesses to the killing, and that he depends upon their testimony to show that he was forced to kill Garrett and would have imperiled his life by hesitating a fraction of a second.
It is said that there were four young men that was going to school in Las Cruces and saw what happen. I knew a family member of one of the young men. His last name was Gallacher. I do know he was in Las Cruces in 1908 because he is listed as a graduate in a May 28, 1908 newspaper.
