Description
Descriptions of wine gardens in the Westport area in the late 1800s, all in the Roanoke and Valentine residential districts west of Broadway, including that of "Fred Esslinger" at 39th and Roanoke Roads and of Peter Muehlebach at 41st and State Line Roads. Description also of the murder or assassination of Westport's Marshal Samuel Bucher by a William Gossett or William Gossard, supposedly associated with the wine gardens (no longer present in the 1930s), and mention of the largest wine gardens, owned by Peter Muehlebach and Fred Esslinger.

Another spelling of the murderer's name is in the vertical file under "Westport," on the first page of the "Kansas City Mail," spelled as "Gossard" instead of "Gossert," as here.
