“Infamous Crimes and Criminals of Klamath, Part One,” is the title of a program to be presented Thursday, Oct. 26, at the monthly meeting of the Klamath County Historical Society.

The program begins at 7 p.m. in the back meeting room of the Klamath County Museum, 1451 Main St. Admission is free.

Among the criminal figures to be discussed is James Quentin Anderson, who grew up near Bly and was convicted of manslaughter at age 17. He escaped from prison near the end of his 10-year sentence.

Not long after being released from prison he was convicted of a separate murder. He appealed his conviction all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, which in 1961 declined to hear his case.
