    One of your best stories yet. I like Rube Burrow. It's a shame he didn't live long enough to meet the woman who would have been the next love of his life. RIP 'The Outlaw' Rube Burrow
  • @carolseeley
    I really enjoyed this story and when you took a pause to talk about your book, I spoke out loud "Don't you Part Two me, JD!" and scared the dog. : )
  • @cindyspear86
    The ever-so-subtle use of "chimbley" made great storytelling even better. ❤
  • @rickmeisch643
    The music you have is just alone worth listening to! Yes sir Rube was a dastardly guy for sure .
  • @MichaelSmith-990
    JD I enjoy these stories so much and appreciate the time and research that support them. Thank you kindly Sir.
  • Yes!! I actually fist - bumped the air when I saw you've uploaded this. I've just woken up at a friend's house in England with a raging hangover (self - inflicted - no sympathy please LOL 😅) so being able to kick back and listen to your story on my day off is like heaven 😊 Thanks JD 😊 Great music as always x

    I’m a real sissy, never watch violent movies or shows, or even read such books, but I can listen to you spin a tale.
  • @BKaneNp8
    Another great story, thank you!
  • @StMiBll
    What a life to be remembered! I do thoroughly enjoy the outlaw stories. Great work as always!

    I own a pistol that was used in an attempt to stop Rube from robbing the Christmas night express train at Duck Hill. In my research, helped getting started by man who knew his history and was a volunteer railroad historian for the old ICC Howard Bahr, who sent me copies from a book he had, there is a story about Rube being in Texas at a bar where another man also sitting at the bar pulled his pistol on Rube. Rube offered to buy the man a drink and when the man raised the glass, Rube pulled his gun and shot him dead.
