Betsy, I know that you want the court records for the Santa Claus Bank Robbery, but you may also want to do a search of the web, if you haven't already done so. There is a link from the Cisco Police Department, the Handbook of Texas, and a few links to books written on that robbery. I hope that some of the first hand accounts were recorded and kept in library in Cisco, too. If you find additional info on this, hope you will share with them list. It is an interesting episode.
