Outlaw JESSE JAMES Killed - Robert Ford 1882 Newspaper
(Note: additional images are located below the description)
Shown is an original & historic old newspaper, offered to enhance your collectible interest: DAILY TIMES, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, April 4, 1882
* Death of outlaw Jesse James
* Robert Ford, the coward
The bottom of the back page (carrying over to the top of the 2nd column) has a report headed: "Death of the Notorious Robber Jesse James" with the text reading: "Jesse James, the notorious robber was shot dead in St. Joseph, Mo., by Charles and Robert Ford, who then gave themselves up and were lodged in jail. The Fords formerly belonged to the James Gang, but have recently been acting as detectives to catch James, hoping to gain the large reward offered for his apprehension, and they arrived at St. Joseph a week ago for the purpose of capturing him. It seems they feared to attempt to take him alive, and one of them shot him down while he was off his guard."
The report is typically brief, as rarely did newspapers of the day give much attention to the event. Some newspapers never gave any mention of it.
Complete in four pages, great condition.
