This year, 2013, marks the 70th anniversary of the Littlefield double murder of a young doctor, Dr. Roy Hunt, and his wife and 100th anniversary of the founding of Littlefield.
Many people from all over the United States came forward with treasured papers, secret stories, and photographs about family and old friends involved in the Hunt murder. So, we wish to thank the anonymous citizens of Littlefield who have come forth as well as the local newspaper publisher. Also, the families of W. R. Newton, and Jim Thomas provided new amazing details. More citizens of Cameron, some named, like a former district attorney, and some who want to remain unnamed, came forward with more of the story. Volunteer investigators have helped with research and photography.
After three more years of research there are new photos of Roy, Ruth, Dr. Billy, Mae, Mr. LaFont and Mr. Jim Thomas. Also, there is a new chapter, many more illustrations, 232 total pages (212 text versus 169 in first edition) , a new font, more than a dozen new stories, and 4500 words of new text.
The second edition of Clovis Road is available from Highgate Publishing, 6257 Highgate Lane, Dallas, Texas by sending a check or money order for $36.81. Tax and postage included. The book is available in Littlefield, Texas at Waymore's. Copies of the first edition are still available, just write.
