fresh ammunition and a new
revolver, and even kidnapped a
Swedish farmhand as a personal
servant for a few days.
But by the end of the month,
Tracy seems to have decided it
was time to go to ground, and
he left Seattle headed east. He
resupplied from a homeowner
in Palmer on July 23, and then
was not heard from till Aug. 5,
when a farmer near Odessa came
home and found a note pinned
to his door: “To Whom it May
Concern,” it read. “Tell (Sheriff)
Cudihee to take a tumble and let
me alone or I will fix him plenty.

TRACY IS KILLED, MAYBE
But, time was running out.
The following day, Tracy found
himself pinned down by rifle
fire in a wheat field near Cres-
ton. This time he couldn’t shoot
his way out. After taking a bullet
that cut a leg artery and another
that broke his other leg, the dying
bandit gave himself the coup de
grace with his Colt .45, bringing
the curtain down on the Wild
West Outlaw era in proper Wild
West Outlaw style.
Tracy had been on the lam for
58 days and had killed 11 people
along the way. During that time,
he furnished eager newspaper
readers with a gripping story,
and by the end he was the most
famous person in the country.
When he was finally dead, sou-
venir hunters stripped his corpse
bare of clothes and hair, and au-
thorities felt it was necessary to
melt his face off with vitriol (sul-
phuric acid) so that his corpse
could not be dug up and put on
display by some enterprising
body-snatcher later on.
The melting of the face might
lead some to wonder if the body
brought back was really that of
Harry Tracy. After all, the re-
ward on his head was huge. If we

can believe then-inmate Joseph
“Bunco” Kelley, though (not al-
ways a smart thing to do, but in
this case it’s probably safe), the
body that was brought back to
the state penitentiary and dis-
played to all the inmates was defi-
nitely that of Tracy.
But Bunco did report some-
thing else that’s odd in this story:
The body brought back to the
pen that was identified as David
Merrill’s was not David Merrill. It
was someone else.
In his 1907 book, Kelley writes
that David Merrill’s ankle had
a big, ugly scar from the many
months he’d had to wear an “Or-
egon Boot” shackle. Kelley, who
worked in the prison bathhouse

American Wild West outlaw. A
few years later, the rest of the old
Hole-in-the-Wall Gang, having
been tracked down and identified
by Pinkerton detectives, would
be wiped out by a detachment of
Bolivian soldiers. America was
changing, and with it Oregon —
there was no room for men like
Harry Tracy in the new America.
Not even in the wild, rough fron-
tier state of Oregon.

Merrill’s body had been found
on July 14, after two weeks bak-
ing in the sun; and the face was
unrecognizable. But the skin of
the ankle was still intact … and
unscarred.
Of course, Bunco Kelley be-
ing Bunco Kelley, it’s probably
not smart to take this as gos-
pel. But it’s definitely not out-
side the realm of possibility that
Tracy, knowing he was basically
doomed, might have done his
wife’s brother a final favor by let-
ting him go home and framing
up some poor bystander to stand
in for his corpse.
