March 30, 1882
ST. LOUIS GLOBE-DEMOCRAT, Missouri, March 30, 1882 

* Outlaw Dick Liddil captured

Page 2 has a nice article headed: "THE JAMES GANG" "Dick Little Surrenders to the Authorities and Will Turn State's Evidence". Dick Liddil (his names was typically misspelled in newspapers) would become one of the last surviving members of the James-Younger Gang.. The article notes: "...a rumor spread that Dick Little, one of the most notorious members of the Jesse James gang, had been captured or surrendered himself..." with much more (see). And great to have in a Missouri newspaper, which is where he was captured, 240 miles from St. Louis
Twelve pages, very nice condition.
