This edition is a facsimile of the 1927 text that Garrett wrote to counteract the negative image he gained after the shooting.

The sentiments involved in the sermon alluded to are as antedeluvian in monotonous argument, language and sense, as the Blue Laws of Connecticut. Sabbath-breaking was the sole and inevitable cause of "The Kid's" murders, robberies and bloody death(?). Immaculate mentor of the soul. "The Kid" never knew when Sunday came here on the frontier, except by accident, and yet, he knew as much about it as some hundreds of other young men who enjoy the reputation of model youth. And, suppose "The Kid" had knowingly violated the Sabbath? He had Christ and his disciples as holy examples-confining his depredations, however, to rounding up a bunch of cattle, not his own, instead of making a raid on his neighbor's corn field and purloining roasting ears. "The Kid" had a lurking devil in him; it was a good-humored, jovial imp, or a cruel and blood-thirsty fiend, as circumstances prompted. Circumstances favored the worser angel, and "The Kid" fell. A dozen affidavits have been proffered me for publication, in verification of the truth of my work. I have refused them all with thanks. Let those doubt who will. PAT. F. GARRETT
