Subject: Past Life Of Ralph Squires. June 3, 2008.
While I was sitting around a table during the Dowsing
Meeting, I was sitting by Ralph and we all were eating
some nice, ripe, dark red, Bing Cherries brought in
by one of his quest. We ate our fill of them and then
were encourged to bring some home with us to eat later.
I entered into a discussion and told the people that
I had met the present i-carnation of many such people
as Abraham, Ezekial and many other who were famous
people in past lives. I didn't tell them that many
people like myself, have spent lives of people who
were not famous such as a lady p-ychic and myself
came out to Calif. when we were teenagers and as poor
as church mice, looking for gold in places like Bodie,
Calif. and Poker Flats in Northern Calif. but very
few want to hear about that so you tell them some
lifetimes that were im****tant.
I then pointed out that I can be around a person
and tell if they have been something of im****tance
and added that Ralph I felt was one of these people.
He then said he was a lawman in one of his past lives.
Then he said that he was Wyatt Earp the famous lawman
of the West. He also said that he had a lot of things
in his house that depicted that period of time.

After getting home I looked in
goggle.com
and put in the words
Wyatt Earp
and this is what I found.
...............
Wyatt Berry Stapp Earp is best known for his
participation in the controversial "Gunfight at the
O.K. Corral," which took place at Tombstone, Arizona,
on October 26, 1881. In this legendary Old West
encounter, Wyatt Earp, his brothers Virgil and Morgan,
and Doc Holliday faced off with Ike and Billy Clanton
and Tom and Frank McLaury. The shootout and the b-oody
events that followed, combined with Wyatt Earp's
penchant for storytelling, resulted in Wyatt Earp
acquiring the reputation as being one of the Old West's
toughest and deadliest gunmen of his day. Wyatt Earp
would become the fearless Western hero in countless
novels and films.
Wyatt Earp is often ****trayed by writers as a man of
few words who did not like to talk about his past.
Nevertheless, Wyatt Earp on several occasions,
categorically and without corroboration, told
interviewers accounts of his deed from the Old West.
In 1896, Wyatt Earp claimed that he backed down
gunman Clay Allison in Dodge City during 1878. Around
1919, Wyatt Earp told Forrestine Hooker that he k-lled
the notorious Johnny Ringo on his way out of Arizona
during 1882 (JW I don't know if that is true or not).
Wyatt Earp later repeated the claim that he ki-led
Johnny Ringo to at least three other people. In the
late 1920s, Wyatt Earp told his future biographer,
Stuart Lake, that he arrested Ben Thompson, a notorious
gunslinger, in Ellsworth, Kansas, on August 15, 1873.
None of these claims made by Wyatt Earp have been
corroborated by contem****ary do***ents. (JW I don't
know if that statement is true or not.)
Today many writers and historians continue to view
Wyatt Earp through rose-colored gl*****. Neil Carmony,
in his Editor’s Foreword to "The Real Wyatt Earp, A
Do***entary Biography" (2000), commented about this
trend: `Typically, when all is said and done the
unrealistic superstar of Stuart Lake’s 1931 biography
`Wyatt Earp, Frontier Marshal', and the numerous
Tombstone movies is the Earp who emerges from their
books and articles.
This is the story of the real Wyatt Earp.
Your host is Steve Gatto, author of "The Real Wyatt
Earp" (Edited by Neil Carmony) (2000), "Johnny Ringo"
(2002), "Curly Bill, Tombstone's Most Famous Outlaw"
(2003). & Steve's latest work, "Hurled Into Eternity,
The Story of the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral" is
expected to be released October 2007. (JW That date
has already past.)
