Judge Bowden of Eunice Figures in Colorful Lea County History

Faugh Bowden, a crusty Eunice jurist with crutches, recalls a career spanning Eunice and Oil Center since 1936. He remembers opening the Green Haven Cafe, serving as justice of the peace from 1938, and presiding over thousands of civil and criminal cases including a high profile 1940 killing. He notes family stories, including sons nicknamed Poke and Tootsie, and recalls fines he issued to jailers and police for misconduct. He also highlights local education links and church growth in Hobbs and Eunice.
