In a San Jose News retelling, W C Davis describes how Len Redfield, a prosperous Arizona rancher, led a double life aiding Tucson stage robbers. After a string of robberies and a pivotal arrest near Florence, Redfield and a partner were executed for aiding criminals, ending a years long wave of offenses in the region.
A historical tale recalls two hidden gamblers at Redfield's ranch who fled when the scene closed. They later surrendered after three years, aided by lawyer Tom Fitch and witnesses, and were acquitted amid claims of self-defense. Redfield’s provision of food for a year helped preserve their lives against Judge Lynch’s fate.
Reports from Arizona describe a large water storage scheme near Pima and Graham counties with a huge reservoir and mountain tunnel.
