4 місяці томуJohn Wesley Hardin - the Old West gunfighter who not only faced down Wild Bill Hickok but also gained infamy for (allegedly) shooting a man merely for snoring! Join me as we examine both of these incidents, as well as Hardin’s encounter with the Bloody Bender family of Kansas, the time a belt buckle saved his life, and the lead-up to the infamous Sutton-Taylor feud. #wildwest #history #western

Wow, awesome episode! It's so interesting to think the Bloody Benders might have had John Wesley Hardin as a victim. It was Laura Ingalls Wilder whose father helped hunt down some.of those murderers, what a posse that would have been had it includes Charles Ingalls and John Wesley Hardin. But for a simple.matter of what was no doubt a relatively short period of time.

I don't believe for a second Hardin backed down Hickock in any shape or form, I think Hardin was a little in awe of Hickock and resorted to telling some tall tales which others at the time may have believed and this helped "corroborate." his tale.

The most plausible scenario would have been that John Wesley got the drop when he witnessed Hickok approaching him...not knowing Hickok's intentions? As far as an "actual" draw? Ridiculous! Both, were smart enough to know the others speed and capabilities. Doubt that it ever happened but some patron over exaggerated it to the newspaper man that sold and even more exaggerated version to a dime novel writer for a few buck$ There is the scenario where, "supposedly", Hardin got the drop and laughed at Hickok stating; "I could have got'cha, Bill!" Bywhich, Hickok laughed and said; "Guess you did, John!" Again...Hickok probably wasn't even thinking about drawing down on Hardin. Hardin was the more worried one...

@WorldwideBushcraftSurvival 3 місяці тому
The story of Hardin getting the drop on Hickock with the border roll never had much of a ring of truth to me. Hickock was already famous at the time and Hardin was becoming famous. People would have know about one or both men in a rock star sort of way. Had that happened in front of witnesses, it makes sense that it would have been the talk of the town. Maybe it would even made the paper. With the incident being unknown until 1890 by Hardin's own mouth, makes the story a little fanciful. I just couldn't imagine sitting in a saloon, witnessing this incident, the going about my business. Me and my buddies would have talked about it and I'm sure everyone around would too.

I have scoured every known resource to substantiate the "snoring" incident (since age 15), and aside from a newspaper article (Abilene Chronicle Aug 10, 1871), alleging that a "Wesley Clements" aka as "Arkansaw", fired four shots through hotel room wall striking a John Cougar (who was allegedly sitting up in bed reading), and killing him (no mention of snoring)...and still haven't found a credible source, either. Safe to say that the actual truth will likely never been known...on that subject. Metz released his book in 1996, a year after RC Marohn released "The Last Gunfighter: John Wesley Hardin". Marohn was a child psychiatrist specializing in juvenile delinquency and narcissistic disorders. His book was primarily a 20c version of psychoanalyzing a 19c man. Metz was doing the same with his book. Lewis Nordyke "John Wesley Hardin Texas Gunman" 1957, is another source on Hardin. Less 20c perception/opinion/psychoanalyzing. All in all...Hardin was no doubt influenced by the times in which he lived. As were many others...known and unknown. 🙂👍

Eventually, it would be a Texas Ranger who arrested Hardin. However, in the years directly following the Civil War, the Rangers were decommissioned. They wouldn't be reinstated until 1873. Before the Rangers, you had the Texas State Police but Hardin usually got the upper hand. As far as the gun policies go, I don't think it was so much that people didn't care about the 2nd amendment as they considered it a common sense type of law. In many towns, you were not allowed to carry a sidearm within city limits but outside of town, you could carry as many as you wanted. I don't know if Hickok ever handed his guns over when he entered such a town or not, but I doubt it.
