Oh...reminds me of when i was a young farm girl and the police were searching farms and beating through the ditches for who they thought was the killer of an entire farm family (almost entire..there was one left and they were looking for him.) It was quite awhile before they found the fugitive and hanged him. The last one to be ever hung in Canada. Many of the locals believed him to be innocent and would give him food and water. Decades later, someone confessed to the crime on their deathbed.

I think you did an excellent job of composing this..

How sad is that Hans?.....I wonder what they thought poor old George did.

Great compostion, which has a very sensitive feel about it.

Nothing much has changed with the Justice System ... I prefer the Lynch Mob Mentality

Fay, Diane and Brian,
Life must have been rough. Some of the grave markers are downright funny, others thought provoking.
Boot Hill is not the most hospitable place. It gets very hot (110-120 F / 42-48 C), full of cactus and yes, look out for the Rattle Snakes hiding in bushes and dark spots.
