Introduction by A.C. Greene, Preface by Ross Montgomery, County Judge. 10.5"x7.5", 120 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. THE STORY OF HOW the Shackelford County Courthouse has stood, in spite of the dangers of fire, warned of by Mr. Sinclair, and a collapsed ceiling, not quite the result of "providential interference," is told by those who know and love the Courthouse, who have lived in its shadow and set the clocks of their own lives by the chimes from its clock tower. It is the story of frontier Texas, of the forts trail, of buffalo hunters, of cattle drives and ranching, and the discovery of oil - the story told in the production, Fort Griffin Fandangle. Shirley Caldwell writes the history of how this Texas county was settled and of how the Courthouse was built by men and women who demanded law and order on a frontier fraught with danger from Comanches, cattle rustlers and other lawless individuals who roamed Texas in those years. The Courthouse became the symbol to those hearty settlers of their yearning for a peaceful existence. Bob Greene and Reilly Nail tell the stories of the marvelous characters whose lives intersected with he Courthouse. Among them was Congressman Thomas Blanton, "The Watchdog of the Treasury," whose district ran from Mineral Wells to El Paso and was called the Jumbo District. Another was Sheriff Marshall Biggs, the symbol of law and order, who also had problems with town characters, one of them a star baseball player. And is the story of Missouri Matilda "Dude" Nail Cook, who happened to own the ranch on which the world's then-largest shallow oil field was discovered and whose ownership was disputed. These and other stories give the reader the rich history of Shackelford County Courthouse in Albany, Texas. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Signed by Author.…
