In this fourth and final chapter of the outlaw years, I will examine William Henry Roberts' account of his escape from the Lincoln County Jail. Additionally, I will compare Roberts' statements with those presented in the book, The Saga of Billy the Kid by Walter Noble Burns to show that the new claim by neo-historians, that Roberts obtained his knowledge of Billy the Kid by memorizing the Burns book is completely unfounded and not based on facts.
