Foiling a fake (book excerpt: Charlatan)
Down to his last few dollars, he spotted a newspaper ad: Milford, Kansas, population two thousand, was looking for a doctor. He and Minnie loaded up their flivver and arrived there on October 7, 1917. On the edge of town Brinkley stopped, and the car shivered into silence. Milford had lied to them. Its population wasn’t two thousand; it was two hundred, if it stood on a chair.
