Patrick F. Garrett, the furmer sheriff
of Dona Ann eoiuiiy. in Texas, who
was recently shot ai:d killed by J.
Wayne Bra.Ie. a .vo'Khful r;: mtiiuaii.
one of bis tenants, near l..is Cruces.
N. M.. in a dispute over a much lca :o.
won popular fame In 1S") wlien he put
to an end the bloody larecr of "Hilly
the Kid," the twenty-one-.veii"-old ban
(lit, who had killed tweuty-one men
"Just to see them kick." Fur t.vo years
or more "the Kid" bud been tin- terror
of New Mexico with his thieving m
raudlng and his frequently reiurrin;;
man killings. Ho had met all comers
and they were easy, but he hadn't met
Pat Garrett. When he did, he erred,
Garrett had first come Into notice ns
a foe of "bad men" In New Mexico
about two years before he dually bunt
ed down and killed the notorious "Kid,'
and he was anything except a green
man at the game of fighting desperate
criminals when the climax of his ca
reer came. Along about 1878, when
Garrett was first mode sheriff of Lin
coin county, largely through the Influ
ence of General Lew Wallace, then
governor of New Mexico, no oue knew
much about the young officer or of bis
mode of handling a gun, say the Kan
sas City Star. One day a friendly des
perado, attracted by Garrett's Innocent
appearance, took him aside for a bit of
counsel and advised him to go back to
Texas, where there were lucid Inter
vals of peace sometimes. '
"This country Is too warm for the
like o you," urged the desperado,
"and you'll not last through tho summer."
"ThankB," drawled Pat Garrett. "1
can stand considerable heat, and I
guess I'll stay."
It was said of Garrett that be could
pull and shoot In about the time It
takes a fly to get from under the hand
that tries to catch it, and It seems to
have been literally true.
Garrett gave the first demonstration
of hid skill with the revolver for the
benefit of a western gentleman Indulg
ing In a little western saloon merri
ment. The gentleman, one Greeufelt,
with a weakness for oilier men's
horses, wns amusing himself in a sa
loon making a couple of men dance by
shooting nt their feet. A third, whose
terpsiehorenn skill or bashfuluess had
met the disapproval of the horse thief,
lay on the door with a bullet Incon
veniently conceulcd In his person when
Pat Garrett casually dropped In.
"Three hands around!" whooped the
horse thief, shifting his pistol toward
Garrett, and almost on the last word
be lunged forward on his face with a
ballet through his heart. The last
Bound be heard In this world was Gar
rett's 'drawling comment:
"You're a poor culler."
Gurrett had a number of other ad
ventures before he finally came to the
point In his life where "Illlly the Kid"
demanded his attention. But that time
finally came. The bandit had Just been
out on one of his usual forays, which
terminated In a saloon brawl and the
ruthless killing of n man. It was the
outlaw's twenty-first victim and his
last.
When Garrett Bet out for ."the Kid"
he departed on no ordinary mission
even for a man used to tbo capture
and killing of 'border outlaws. Tho
bandit wns a wild and lawless youth,
cunning, bravo aud dashing and as
clever and fast with n gun as any man
that ever trod the west, even though
bo was only a boy in years. Billy was
both unscrupulous and cunning, albeit
not without a leaveu of chivalry and
romance. His adventures had been
numerous, and he wns New Mexico's
desperado hero, but Garrett didn't mind.
When the plucky sheriff overtook the
bandit, "the Kid" took n look at his op
ponent, whom he knew Immediately by
repute, and' decided that It was better
to glre up. He was tried and convicted
of murder nnd sentenced to death. But
the bandit was destined to die In, an
other fashion than on the scaffold. Two
careless deputies were outwitted, nnd
he escaped.
A less experienced man would have
gone out In pursuit while the trail was
hot. Not so Garrett, who knew the
wavs of the desperate und wily outlaw.
Iustead ho set out for the Maxwell
ranch, near Cnrlzzoo, In Llneolu coun
ty, where "the Kid's" sweetheart lived.
Garrett and bis men lay In wait until
they saw a man dodge Into the house
uuder cover of the night. Garrett sin
gle handed slipped In after him and
posted bis men on the porch. Garrett
kuew Maxwell and walked to his room
to ask whether the bandit had come in.
Maxwell wns asleep and had to be
awakened. He knew nothing of "the
Kid" and wasn't expecting him, but
Garrett was pretty certain and on
guard. He bad Just turned from Max
well's bed In the darkness when "the
Kid" entered the room. There wns n
tense moment. The bandit advanced to
the bed, believing to speak t') Maxwell.
"Who are tlieyV ho asked, noticing
the men on the porch.
Iu an Instant he knew that Maxwell
was not .".lone. The boy bandit made
a quick, catlike move backward nnd
whipped out his gun with Incredlblo
swiftness, but he was yet too slow. A
bullet from Garrett's gun made him a
bandit no longer. Garrett tiled his
own prophecy that he would dlo with
hi? boots on.
