Scott and Craig join Jeff in Denver to do some research.
Here's Lou's mausoleum at Fairmount Cemetery.
No wait, that's "Smails." Here's Lou over here...
Here we are in the archives of the Unitarian Universalist church. Lou and the other grifters were detained in the basement of the church's previous building upon their arrest in 1922.
This chair supposedly dates from the era, and may once have accomodated a dejected con man.
Scott in the archives.
The Kentom, Lou's last residence as a free man.
On down toward Buena Vista.
Arriving in Leadville.
The Mining Hall of Fame and Museum. That's where we found out Simon had been an assemblyman.
Not a clue. A mineral.
Silver Cliff Ranch. I worked just around the corner on Mt. Princeton for a while.
St. Elmo.
