Sonoita

At bedtime, he asked me if he might sleep in the front room by the fire, to which I reluctantly consented, taking good care to lock and bar the door between us.

The next morning after breakfast, I gave John Ward some grub and advised him to push on to Fort Buchanan on the Sonoita, where he could probably get some employment.

He went on to the Sonoita and took up a ranch, forming a temporary partnership with a Mexican woman, according to the customs of the country at that time.

She had a little boy who also appeared to be partly of Celtic descent, as he had a red head and was nicknamed Mickey Free.

This probably formed the only matrimonial tie between John Ward and the Mexican woman.

Okay.

Do you remember Rick Renzi? He was a, a representative from Northern Arizona, but he actually had property down in Sonoita.

Okay.

And that was, I mean, that was a, a huge case.

Um, I remember going on that warrant.

We were on some ranch in Sonoita.

Uh-huh.

It was IRS and FBI, and FBI made us wear suits that day.
