When I looked at the site you enclosed in your message, I also found this article: RHODES, FRED - Death News Article - at Pueblo, Colo., Aug. 20, was denied the privilege of taking morphine and cocaine while serving out a thirty day sentence in the city jail, dies two hours after being released this afternoon, when he took an overdose of morphine. He was in jail for petty theft, claimed he would never survive without his morphine. City physician ordered he not be allowed to use drugs during his time in jail. Rhodes was arrest a month ago for stealing a garden hose. This he sold for 25 cents to buy drugs. RMN 08/21/1911 Page 10 This Fred may be the brother that was accidently shot in the face on a hunting trip as a kid. According to what my grandfather wrote about him, he never fully recovered from this would. He had to have several surgeries and always seemed to have to wear a bandage around his head and jaw. So that would explain the need for morphine. He must have suffered a lot of pain and probably became addicted to morphine. Thanks for sending this to me. Every little bit helps. I live in Texas so it is very difficult for me to get my hands on these kinds of records. If you come across any more data, please send it my way. Also, anything on Burr Flag Sanborn would be nice as well. Thanks, Lu-Ann
