most OF his time, us was also John
Wesley Hardin, better known as Yves.
Hardin, who has been known to kill q
man for snoring in his sleep. These
miscreants have had no such word as
fairplay in their lexicon. If they III

bullicd him into active resistance, then
shot him elm sclf-dcfcncc." This sort
of cowboy has been more frequently
seen heretofore than at present, but we
have still few left.
