	Cole Younger Interview
		Cole is the spokesman of the trio, and in the beginning it is well to admit that a shrewder questioner or witness never made use of brain and tongue than he.
		I have been told that the shooting of Jim Younger, in the mouth, caused such profuse hemorrhage that the pursuers could trail you by the blood; that one of the two who escaped insisted on killing Jim in order to destroy the trail, and that it was this proposition which caused the separation.
		I thanked Cole and his brothers for the marked kindness they had shown me, and after again explaining the possible necessities, owing to conflicting and current errors, of my connecting them with crimes of which they were perhaps as innocent as myself, we shook hands cordially and I withdrew.

		Cole was a cousin of my grandfather and I remember him talking of Cole visiting them after he was released from prison.

	John Koblas: When the Heaven Fell & Wild West Show
		The story of the latter years of Cole Younger and Frank James that John Koblas tells in "The Great Cole Younger and Frank James Historical Wild West Show" is a fresh and wholly entertaining look at these two aging outlaws and how they dealt with their notoriety and their facade of sometimes sanctimonious innocence.

		Koblas presented a Cole Younger and Frank James who were well-rounded individuals where one could see both the elements that made them two of the country's most notorious outlaws and also two of the most successfully reformed outlaws.
