James Redman, a Deputy Sheriff,  Contractor,  Mayor, proprietor of the Pioneer Saloon and mine owner

There isn’t very much information regarding James Redman in the newspaper clippings regarding him as deputy sheriff, but many articles below suggest he was in fact a deputy sheriff. 

The outlaws, however, rode back into White Oaks on November 30 and … took a shot at another deputy named James Redman on the White Oaks main street See Source

1880
They take a shot at Deputy Sheriff James Redman, but a large group of armed citizens scare them out of town.   See Source

 

The above article clipping from Gold-Mining Boomtown: People of White Oaks, Lincoln County, New Mexico Territory
By Roberta Key Haldane. I can’t however yet as to find the original newspaper clipping. Any help is appreciated.
