The August line-up:
JOHN BAYLOR – Baylor spent his life hating Indians. Unfortunately, many times he was in a position of authority over them.
THE HAYFIELD FIGHT – One of the first battles against Indians where the troopers and whites had repeating rifles.
ZIP WYATT – Here’s a small-time outlaw, who at one time seemed to have every lawman in Oklahoma on his trail.
HERNANDEZ FAMILY – Gruesome murders happened in the Old West. But, the big difference is the response to those murders.
JIM REED – Another one of those obscure outlaws. But, his wife wasn’t obscure.
BATTLE OF RATTLESNAKE SPRINGS – A battle that seemed insignificant at the time, turned out to be the beginning of the end of the Indian threat in West Texas.
JIM CLARK – Jim’s story is that of an outlaw turned lawman. But, that transition wasn’t complete, and Jim paid the price.
BIDDY MASON – Overcoming obstacles was a trait of people who came out west. But, no on overcame more serious obstacles than Biddy Mason. (See Picture)
GUADALUPE PASS AMBUSH – The story of the death of Newman Clanton, the head of the Clanton gang of cowboys.
MARK TWAIN’S STAGE RIDE – Stage travel was rough at best. And, even though Mark Twain was known for exaggerating, his writing about his stage ride was probably accurate.
THOMPSON-STERLING SHOOTOUT – Sometimes, when liquor is flowing freely and boredom reigns, friends turn on friends.
DENTIST CLAY ALLISON – Few men of the Old West have greater stories told about them than Clay Allison has.
STAGECOACH ROBBERY PHOTOGRAPHED – This is the story of the first recorded photograph of a crime in progress.
TEMPLE HOUSTON – Temple was probably the first celebrity lawyer. And he was quite a man.
THE KID KILLS FIRST MAN – Every famous outlaw has to kill his first man. This is the story of Kid Antrim’s.
CYRUS SKINNER – Sometimes it seems no matter how many times a person is punished for his bad actions, he never learns. But, there are ways of stopping this repetitive nature.
ED CRAWFORD – Old West lawmen were either fired by the mayor or fired upon by the outlaws. Both happened to Ed Crawford.
WILLIAM ARNETT – Arnett’s fate was that of most horse thieves. But he was buried with a couple of unusual items.
WILLIAM JOHNSON – In-laws can sometimes be a pain. But, none was as bad as those of William Johnson.
WOMEN DUEL – Although many shootouts were caused by a woman, this one was caused by a man.
ELIZABETH ANN CLIFTON – Truly, it took strong women to survive in the Old West. And, Elizabeth Ann was as strong as they came.
THREE LEAVE EXPEDITION – Here is a story to remember the next time you want to quit before the job is done.
MASS LYNCHING – Although nine men were found lynched, no one talked about it, and it sure wasn’t reported in the newspaper.
