Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-02-08

"Goodby, God" was the girls farewell I'm
goin' to Bodice"
People in Bode kicked up big rumpus when
they heard that. They claimed that wasn't what
she meant at all The way they took it she said:
Good! BY God, I'm goin to Bodice"
That was about the way they looked at every
thing there. Life centered around gold. saloons.
dancehal gals and we-beaten road to the grave
yard. Like most of the other rich strikes Bodies
gold carried that took its finder TO his
death Men wore their lives out fighting starva-
ton, blizzards and Indians to find pay dirt. About
every time one found it something happened to
him. He got killed, went crazy, or was gypped out
of it, Somebody else moved in and scOoped up the
gold
1t while Old Pancake and his cronies were
first sinking their picks into the outcroppng5 of
the ComstoCk Lode that Bill Body started out on
prospecting trip from camp near Mono Lake in
California. Not far from the NeNada-iHe- he -fetttfr
lodge OF E0Id-bcaring ore He staked out claim
and with his pardncr, fellow named Taylor. got
ready to start digging out his fortune. The pros
pcctor's dream had come true. Body had made his
big strike. He was fixed for life.
That Winter about five months later Body and
Taylor were headed for their cabin with a load of
provisions when a mountain blizzard cut loose The
snow soon was knee high the trail Body fin
ally had to give up. Taylor pushed on for help but
by the time he got back Body was lost to sight
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-02-08

under heavy shroud of snow. They found him
the next Spring when the thaw came, frozen to
death
And the curse was strong enough to put Taylor
in his grave a short time later A band Of blood
thirsty Piutes trapped him in his cabin. He fought
a single-handed battle that brought some of the
redskins down, but they finally got him.
L OR the next few years excitement over the Vir-
Il ginia City bonanza was so high nobody paid
much attention to Body discovery. Then mining
district was formed there. For some reason. they
changed the spelling Of thoy name to "Bodie' and
1t has been that ever since
When they did start digging in the Bodic noun
tansldc they made up for lost time camp Of
flimsy shacks and false-front buildings sprang up
as fast freghters could haul lumber Within
couple years Bode was roaring night and day with
nearly ten thousand men and women fighting and
sweating to dig a fortune out of the hills or ont
of each other.
Two men got into an argument in saloon one
night. When the row reached the right pitch they
both walked out of the swinging doors to the side
walk. There they turned. Each grabbed the others
SHIRT front and drew. Two shots rang out. Two
fell dead
The undertaking business was so good there
Tor while they had to have two hcarses As far as
know these two old relics are still standing in a
shed at Bodic at the foot of Boot Hill
Union Pacific Jack was one of the Bodic bad
men but he didn't live long enough to be one Of the
badmcn FROM Bodie He and another fellow start
cd arguing about which one was the toughest
Reckon yuh can't settle this with words Jack
clustered.
"Yuhre right-th first time. How'll you have
pistols suits me"
They walked outside, wheeled, and shot
The result didn't settle the argument They
were both dead. That was the nice thing about
most shooting scrapes thcrc-whcn two men shot
each other there nothing for anybody else to
settle, except the undertaken.
Bodlc was a camp where you had to carry your
own brand of justice in your belt Outsiders didn't
bother much in private shootin' matches. There
was only one time when the miners thought kill
ing was a little out of order. That was on New
Years Eve when the camp had its grand shindig in
Miners Hall
One of the most popular women in Bodie
Mrs. De Roche. the wife of a we-to-do Frenchman.
De Roche was all right, except he was jealous He
knew his wife was pretty, but he didn't want any
one else to notice 1t.
Like everybody else they turned out for the
New Year celebration. miner named Treloar
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-02-08

grabbed De Roche and threw him in Jail, but he
crawlcd out hole before his Captors block
away and took to the hills A posse started after
him and dragged him back.
The camp was getting pretty mad by that time
and bunch that called themselves NigilanteS de-
Cidcd they ought to start the New Year right by
making example of the killer
When one fellow started to argue against hang
ing, "A right, get another rope Vigilante
shouted. well hang you too
That put quetus TO any more argument. The
men wheeled wagon into the street in front of
Miners Hall, right the blood-stained spot in
the snow where Treloar had fallen and propped
the tongue up in the air for a galows. A few
minutes later De Roche swinging from it.
Mrs De Roche, the unfortunate cause of the
trouble, was a respectable woman, but Bode, like
