File:Frank Hamer (1884-1955) obituary by the Associated Press in the Abilene Reporter-News of Abilene, Texas on July 11, 1955.jpg

Noted Texas Ranger Dies. Austin, Texas. (Associated Press) Frank Hamer, long time Texas Ranger captain who took part in the 1934 ambush of outlaws Clyde Barrow that and Bonnie Parker riddled with bullets on a lonely Louisiana road, died last night. A heart attack killed the 71-year-old lawman described by friends as "blunt, stubborn and fearless." His 6-foot-4½ frame had been wounded 14 times. He reportedly served as a Ranger longer than any other man - about 35 years. Hamer had lived here since retiring about 10 years ago.

Works copyrighted before 1964 had to have the copyright renewed sometime in the 28th year. If the copyright was not renewed, the work is in the public domain. No renewal notice was found for this periodical for issues published in this year. For instance, the first New York Times issue renewed was from April 1, 1928. Some publications may have renewed an individual article from an earlier time, for instance the New York Times renewed at least one article published on January 9, 1927. If you find any contrary evidence, or the renewal database has been updated, please notify me.
