It wasn't terribly expensive, but it was one of a kind. While the jeweler was working on it, a man came in and asked to use the bathroom. The jeweler escorted him behind the counter. When the man left, the ring was gone.

I've often wondered what happened to that ring. Was it given to someone? Resold for drug money? Where is it now? I also wonder about the history of the ring before I got it. I bought it in an antique store in Oxford, England. Who wore it before I did?

I'm not sure if the story that came out of this would be a mystery or an historical novel, but it might be interesting.(less)

Ellis Conway, Justice of the Peace and Runaway Felon


 In his small book The Wallace (New Mexico) Story

It always amazes me why writers stick to the old standbys like Billy the Kid, the Daltons, Courtight, Allison and others when men like Conway offer far more fascinating reading. Perhaps it takes research and detective work to track such men down and many writers have neither the time nor stomach for real work, especially when the publi
