ANDRE JORGENSEN ANDERSON Fort Worth, Texas
From the WPA Files of the Library of Congress
"My first large bill of goods sold was bought by Sam Bass's gang, the notorious out-laws of the '70s, which deprecated in the S. W. The total bill was $360 for pistols and ammunition. The amount was paid for with $20 gold pieces. My stock of goods was not very large at the time and the sale almost cleaned me out. This sale was made about six months before Sam Bass was killed at Round Rock, Texas, and a week before the gang robbed the bank at Forney, Texas."
