Sad to say, my knowledge of New Mexico history is less than it should be. However, this story must rank high in importance of genealogical history of the area. It seems the author compares the grasp of powers by the various leaders trying to be Governor of New Mexico to a poker game. In the end, the victors wild yells of triumph rang out as the rebels kicked the slain governor's head around their camp like a football. The story is entitled; NEW MEXICO’S GAME OF DEATH By Gra’Delle Duncan Please read this. This is an overlooked story I found in an unusual and different magazine. For this item, I am making it available with a Buy It Now opportunity so you don’t have to wait to see if it's yours. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on Ebay every day but the rarer ones about a power grab for the Governorship of New Mexico of the old west are seldom found. Collectors treasure them and their price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out because really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest. Here’s one of ‘em. Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western heroes. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf gathering dust. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell. This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost. Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive. I hope you appreciate the effort. NEW MEXICO’S GAME OF DEATH By Gra’Delle Duncan Folks, sooner or later – Genealogists are going to realize that their family kinfolks are lying on some dealer’s dusty shelves. If I can contribute to finding one little name or photo of that long lost ancestor you have been waiting to find, its worth all the time I spend. As a tribute to the honor of our American, Mexican and Spanish Ancestors, my indexed listings will include all names mentioned in the story from this time on.
