Ions, who was in Clifton the same summer, that early one night two men were killed across the river on the Mexican side. About 2 o’clock in the morning the Kid and a pal came into his room to sleep, and while retiring the Kid re- marked: “Great God, this is getting to be a tough country, when a man will give up his life before he will part with $45.” The Kid evi- dently did the “business,” as they termed it. A few weeks after his wife died. Kid was killed on the Gila by Constable Olguin, of Clifton.
