    Thank ya'll for another interesting story.
    It's hard to imagine, even back then, someone having that kind of money on their person.
    I have had relatives that talked about putting money in the sugar bowl, flour can, burying it in a mason jar, even had an uncle that always smoked a pipe, and kept money in his old Prince Albert tobacco can.
    It's still hard to think how little money it takes for a thief to destroy so many lives.
    Thank ya'll for all that ya'll do to put these stories together, and bring them to us.
    God bless ya'll and stay safe on your travels to these locations.

    Wonder how the son , Milford Hicks , received the gun shot wound a month later ? As for the bullet match to the gun , you would need the bullet that emerged from his forehead . Was it found ? Another great job , thanks again .

    What did that poor family do without that money they scrimped and saved for? I wonder if any of it was recovered for them.
