William Alford Richards had led a charmed life. He surveyed the southern and western boundaries of Wyoming in 1873 and 1874, brought irrigation to the Big Horn Basinin 1884, started the Red Bank Ranch 26 miles south of Ten Sleep, Wyoming, in 1886, became Governor of Wyoming in 1896, pardoned Butch Cassidy, and was appointed head of the General Land Office in Washington, D.C by President Teddy Roosevelt in 1903. A highly successful life, but then one tragic event after another would haunt his remaining years.

The night my wife passed away, God spoke to me. This is my testimonial of how He tought me acceptance.

A little different episode about a deeply personal event in my life. One that taught me a very important lesson. I hope there is someone that this will help.

Part 2 of Asa Mercer and the Banditti of the Plains. This episode explains the unique discovery of what I have had in my possession for over 30 years and just recently was able to verify what it really was. A very important document relating to the most important and rare book in Wyoming's history! Enjoy!

The Johnson County War in 1892, was a moment in history that defined what kind of state Wyoming was to become. Would outside big money interests continue to control it or would the smaller homesteaders have a future for themselves. By authoring "The Banditti of the Plains", Asa Mercer created a bombshell. He exposed the powerful people in the state for their role in the invasion of Johnson County. This is part one, introducing you to Mr. Mercer, and the many interesting scemes he was involved in.
