Grave marker of Jim White 1828 -1880.
On the outskirts of Cody, Wyoming
Jim White, one of the foremost buffalo hunters of the western plains and mountains, was reburied at Old Trail Town on May 6, 1979. He killed over 16,000 buffalo and was ambushed by thieves at his hunting camp on Shell Creek in the Big Horn Mountains in 1880. His grave and cabin are both at Old Trail Town, along with his Sharps rifle.
Just tell me they didn't bury the Sharps with'm...
ReplyDeleteMaybe they did! Sounds like it was as much a part of him as his right arm.
