WHY HE LEFT THE HILLS.

History.
The following taken from the Black
H ills Times, relates to Jack Baronette,
well known guide and old-timer Of
the Yellowstone country, now an ss-
sistant superintendent of the National
Park: Jack was one Of the first TO
reach the Hills, aud one of the first Of
the old Montanians to leave il. His
departure was not Of his seeking, but
a matter of discretion. Our govern
ment was purely provisional at the
best, aud in many localities Of still less
form. A lawyer named Trimblin,
from Nebraska, had smothered the
best portion of Battle Creek, when in
February, 1877, q great stampede to the
locality occurred. Finding the ground
all staked out, but unrepresented and
no one to represent 1t, the miners
smelled a very large mouse, insti-
tuted an Investigation. discovered
the condition of affairs, and deprived
Trimblin of greater portion OF
his ground. Jack Baronette, coDspic'
uous among the miners, incurred
Tripblin's great displeasure, and the
latter, under the influence Of liquor,
met Baronette at Hayward, and In a
very cowardly manner attempted to
kill him, firing two or three shots in
rapid succession. Too much alcohol
medicine made his aim erring, and
Jack, in self-defense. unseated his
enemy. 1t was q fatal shot. Jack
was arrested. tried and acquitted as hi
properly should have been, but thu
proceedings being informal becaus,
not legally instituted. created appre
tensions in Jacks mind of re-arrest
trouble and expense upon the estab

days, returning to his old Yellowstone
haunts where he has since remained.
