Papers from the desk of Amos W. Barber sent to Charles B. Penrose
Document listing titles of cases brought in District Court for Laramie County regarding the Invasion. The document was sent to Charles from Barber's wife after her husband's death. The list of names (some are pseudonyms) includes Frank Canton, one of the Invasion leaders. Although Johnson County prosecutors gathered evidence and intended to file a number of indictments against those involved in the Invasion, most of the invaders were released on bail. After a series of legal entanglements, all of the charges against the WSGA members were eventually dropped.
