BOSTON EVENING TRANSCRIPT, Oct. 6, 1892 

* Dalton brothers gang killed
* Coffeyville, Kansas raid


The front page has a report: "To Outdo The James Boys" "That Was the Intention of the Dalton Gang When It Raided the Coffeyville Banks".
The report notes in part: "Emmett Dalton is being closely guarded...He confessed that the gang was responsible for the Red Rock, Wharton and other train robberies in the Territory...story of a hidden treasure he said was nonsense...He said he wold outdo te James boys exploits and would go to Coffeyville and raid both banks at the same time..." with more detail.
Ten pages, nice condition.
