The version that I heard, Bean was searching the body and found the pistol and $40. He then fined the dead man and pocketed the $40.

same here I heard he fined him for the amount in its pockets and as you say kept it

It's somewhat surprising to think that the wild west was basically only a 30 year period from around 1865-1895. Popular culture gives the impression ( intentionally or unintentionally) that it was far longer. There certainly seems to be a lot that happened in that relatively short period of time.

It's probably because a lot of frontier and Texas history get rolled into popular culture representatiosn of the Old West.

I suspect Francis Augustus Hamer might disagree about the above dates, but the telephone and motorcar certainly had a calming effect. Geoff Who watched "Tales of the Texas Rangers" as an impressionable youth.

@Mr. Shlock it's like a joke I made up about the trades ... If Michelangelo came back to life today, he'd have to take a five year apprenticeship before he could paint a fence and if Leonardo DaVinci came back, he'd have to take 7 years of Civil engineering before he could dig a trench for sewer pipe
