Welcome to my show today. After a month of moving BeeBop Publishing Group to Georgetown, Texas, from Brenham, Texas, I took a ride south on IH-35 from Georgetown to Austin. I couldn't help but notice a large green and white highway sign that said <em>Sam Bass Road</em>. I became interested in where in the world this road went. So I exited and followed it to a road sign for <em>A. W. Grimes Boulevard</em>.</p> <p>I'm not sure why, but I needed to find out who these people were just like I did when I wrote a story about the Runaway Scrape in Texas and discovered <a href="https://texashillcountry.com/three-legged-willie-texas-hero/"><strong>Three-Legged Willie's statue</strong></a>, a man who played a part in this novel, on the downtown square in Georgetown. Or captured the memoirs of <a href="https://books2read.com/u/m2rQNG"><strong>Dilue Rose Harris in the Runaway Scrape</strong></a> or <a href="https://books2read.com/u/mdG2el"><strong>Mary Elizabeth Surratt in the Lincoln Assassination</strong></a><strong>.</strong></p> <p>I always read all the old newspapers and read the memoirs before writing my stories. I will leave it to you when you read my novel, Sam Bass and his Horse Marines, and decide for yourself if he was a Robin Hood or a Murderer! And, stay with us, and at the end of this podcast, <a href="https://www.podpage.com/sidney-st-james/season-2-episode-1-the-making-of-the-dan-dave-duo-from-the-backroom-in-austin-texas-1980/"><strong>Dave
