Police inspector defies harm in raid reports from Texas
In a toned account inspector Turner recalls a late night raid and the two Ranger reporters who sought interviews. He notes prisoners receive fair treatment if compliant, while government laws must be obeyed. A stocky, steady eyed inspector speaks of enforcing order as travelers and locals react. Content mentions Defee Cook’s Colorado trip and visits by Mr. and Mrs. Cathar and C. R. Thomas.
