Description
A transcript of excerpts related to Fort Worth from "The Gentleman in the White Hat" by C. L. Douglas, compiled in the 1930s by Sheldon F. Gauthier for the Works Progress Administration's Federal Writers' Project. The excerpts contain information about the exploits of various outlaws and the law men trying to arrest them throughout the nineteenth century. The people mentioned are: Sam Grimes, Cynthia Ann Parker, Bill McDonald, Tom Hickman, and Clyde Barrow. The WPA originally intended to publish a Fort Worth City Guide. This transcript was likely compiled in preparation for that guide, which was never published.
