John Dees Grave

John DEES was Thomas O'CONNER's boss, and while on a cattle drive, a fight occurred between John and Thomas, resulting in John being killed. The grave is said to be near near the Towash-Clifton Rd and the Towash-Meridian Rd. Thomas O'CONNER was brought before the Bosque County court, but was released because something was wrong with the indictment. He was arrested again in 1889, tried and sentenced to life. However, he was pardoned Christmas of 1904.
