Remarkable Afghan tale of honor among thieves told in Pierce County
A Washington letter from the Pioche Weekly Record recounts Khan Gol and his family’s brutal robbery, the dramatic escape with a severed head, and the notion of family honor in crime. The narrative contrasts this with a later tale about Hewitt’s insomnia and odd lodging schemes, then shifts to railroad bed expectations and a Roman bishop’s brigand encounter, ending with various brief notes on local curiosities and a Norwich pupil’s satirical answer.
