Jamey Warren is a new visitor to the Hideout
and tells of being a relative to Ruth and Jesse
Warren and relates the following story...

Ruth and Jesse had recently purchased the car
and it was sitting in the driveway at 2107
Gabler.

They had left the keys in the ignition
(which was common at the time).
Bonnie and Clyde were believed to be staying
at the nearby "Golden Glow Cabin Courts".

Jamey's father, said that Alvin Karpis of the
Barker gang had tipped them off that the
Highway Patrol was aware of their presence in
the Topeka area.

Their search for a get-away car, brought them
to the Warren's neighborhood.

Ruth, who was doing the dishes, had looked out
of the window and noticed that the car was
missing.

Believing that her husband had driven it to the
house of a neighbor, she called him, and he said
that he hadn't taken the car.

That neighborhood, their house, and the cabin
courts, are located in an area that seems to
ignore the passage of time, although the cabin
courts have since then been torn down.

The subject of the car, brought disagreement to
Ruth and Jesse. He supposedly was not interested
in getting the car back, whereas Ruth, realizing
the commercial value of the car, traveled to
Louisiana, to try and get the car back.

Ruth and Jesse divorced shortly after this
incident. This story has been repeated in the
"Topeka Capital Journal" several times.
