LANGTRY Tex The judge gazed at the man's body laid out in the sunlight for an official proceedings scene in this excerpt from Andrew H Malcolm NYT News Service.
The piece traces Langtry’s rise and decline around Judge Roy Bean the Law West of the Pecos. It recalls Bean’s boisterous courtroom in the Jersey Lily and his flair for hard fines while Langtry fades as railroads mechanize and ranching shrinks. It notes the Judge Roy Bean Visitors Center drawing tourists and preserving memory of a dusty frontier town.
