The June 2010 line-up:
WILLIAM HENDERSON – Henderson was an outlaw who operated in the Indian Territory with impunity by traveling back and forth between jurisdictions. But, vigilantes put a stop to his actions.
WILCOX TRAIN ROBBERY – Butch Cassidy and the Wild Bunch weren’t always successful in their robberies. This is one instance.
RED BEARD’S BAR – Outlaws sometime try to change their ways. Red Beard tried by opening a bar. Unfortunately, for him, it was easier being an outlaw.
FLEMING PARKER – For almost a year and a half, Fleming Parker was regularly arrested and then broke out of jail until he was finally transported “from the environment of this earth into the great unknown.”
83 HOUR TRAIN SERVICE – When the transcontinental railroad was completed it took just 83 hours to go from New York to San Francisco. But, for some passengers it could take ten or more days.
CHIEF ESKIMINZIN – In the battle between the white man and the Indian there was probably no stranger act than that committed by Chief Eskiminzin on June 5, 1871.
DODGE CITY PEACE COMMISSION I & II – Luke Short was run out of Dodge City, Kansas. Later he returned with Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson and several other friends. Luke’s problem was solved by “speaking softly and carrying a big stick.”
CAMP GRANT MASSACRE – The story of how a young girl miles away saved the lives of six Apache babies.
SAN FRANCISCO VIGILANCE COMMITTEE I & II – With the town of San Francisco overrun with criminals and the court corrupt, the citizens decided to take the situation in their own hands.
PAULINE CUSHMAN – The Old West had a tendency to grind people down. And, tragically, one was ground down more than Pauline Cushman.
WILLIAM DANIELS – Although lawman William Daniels isn’t known today, if you were an Arizona outlaw you sure wouldn’t want him on your trail.
JOHN COLTER – Stripped of all his clothes and told to run, John Colter was able to travel 250 miles with Blackfoot Indians on his trail.
ALFRED PACKER I & II – Known as the “ghoul of the San Juans” because of his cannibalism, Alfred Packer’s story seemed to go on forever.
WILD BILL HICKOK, SHOWMAN – Wild Bill Hickok tried his hand as a showman like his friend Buffalo Bill Cody. But it seems he had no stage presence.
JOHN LARN I & II – Although John Larn committed a number of atrocities, the law never chased him. But that doesn’t mean his friends didn’t do the job the law should have.
GENERAL SANTA ANNA – Although Santa Anna was the dictator of Mexico, he died in absolute poverty. (Picture is of General Santa Anna)
STAND WATIE – The last southern general to surrender following the Civil War wasn’t a southern gentleman, but a Cherokee Indian.
KID CURRY – Although Harvey Logan, better known as Kid Curry, was the worst of the Wild Bunch, he ended up taking his own life…or did he?
