Carl Sagan condemned Star And every campsite was cleaner when we left than when we entered. c Wars as a scientific absurdity. A nuclear physicist, a retired major general and Rev. Jesse Jackson were among noted speakers. Marchers who spoke included one marcher who had had to leave the march because of cancer and a 15-year-old girl who began a peace petition when she was 12. She called on Reagan and Gorbachev to listen to the children who wanted a chance to grow up and not perish in a nuclear war. The End Was Not THE END! We had reached Washington, but the effects rippled out, just as a pond ripples when a stone is thrown in. We had contacted a million or more people through personal contact, in speeches, rallies or via news media. And always with the plea to contact your elected representatives to urge them to end the nuclear threat. Six million Russians stayed home from work one day demanding an end to the arms race. A Peace March with 230 Americans and 200 Russians walked from Leningrad to Moscow. A huge rally got worldwide attention. Reagan and Gorbachev did meet and sign a treaty that ended the threat of the red button being pushed to send nuclear missiles toward the other country. Many marchers went on to participate in anti-war or peace movements in this country and abroad. I learned many things from being part of the March that can be used THE by groups, large or small, or nations. Tolerance and respect no matter what nationality, color, age, religion or political beliefs. Decisions made by consensus, not majority, are possible. The key is to listen to others with your heart, not with the intent of converting them to END what you want, and to speak from your heart. I found that when I was truly listened to, I could go along with what was best for group good. In disagreements, people went to mediation with a trained mediator who acted as go-between until all the feelings were aired and a resolution WAS reached. This alleviates the need for suing in a court of law, or using a gun or other weapon. Good memories for me include children who set up a lemonade and cold water stand beside the route of the March. A senior citizen on social NOT security who donated a jar of change she’d carefully saved since she knew the March was coming through her town. She walked to our camp to bring the money. A small 5&10 store in a small town in Pennsylvania gave each march- THE er a small gift – a washcloth, a tube of toothpaste, etc. Farmers brought fresh produce and eggs to the March. (Once, I helped crack 12 dozen eggs for our breakfast.)

  • Clay Allison Differed from His Contemporaries in That He Was Never a Frontier Lawman Or Outlaw and Always Considered Himself a Hard-Working Cowhand
    from Gary McCarthy’s OUR AMERICAN WEST Counted among the most dangerous men of his day, Clay Allison differed from his contemporaries in that he was never a frontier lawman or outlaw and always considered himself a hard-working cowhand. But he didn’t start out that way. Clay was born on a poor dirt farm in Tennessee in 1840, and until he was twenty-one helped his parents eke out a living. In 1862, Clay enlisted in the Confederacy’s Tennessee Light Artillery but was discharged shortly thereafter for a serious “mental disorder”. The army surgeon’s report reads in part, “incapable of performing the duties of a soldier because of a blow to the head received many years ago. Emotional or physical excitement produces paroxysmal of mixed character, partly epileptic and partly maniacal.” Though Clay re-enlisted and served as a scout to the end of the Civil War, the surgeon’s term, “maniacal” is the key to a pattern of violent behavior that marked him as one of the most savage of gunmen. With his beloved South devastated by the war and overrun by carpetbaggers, Clay and his family moved to Texas and he worked for many of the most prominent ranchers of the period, including Charles Goodnight and Oliver Loving. But cowboying is mostly hard work and Clay yearned for excitement. He never lasted long on one job, and very soon his reputation as a hard-drinking, dangerous man began to spread. In 1870, he is reputed to have gotten drunk and killed a man named Johnson in a knife fight.

  • Texas Pecos Trail Region
    Frontier Spirit in Big Sky Country ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ igh tabletop mesas rise from wide-open prairies. Ancient rivers course through sheer limestone canyons. Cool artesian springs bubble up from deep underground and ceaseless wind sculpts sand into ever-changing dunes. Above it all stretches a sky so big you can almost reach out and touch it. This is the legendary Wild West of classic books and movies, and the real-life landscape of the Texas Pecos Trail Region. The region’s 22 West Texas counties cover almost 35,000 square miles, an area larger than a dozen average-sized U.S. states. This big land comprises an ecological transition zone at the junction of the high and rolling plains in the north, Edwards Plateau in the east, mountain basins and Chihuahuan Desert in the west and brush country in the south. For centuries, scattered Native American groups hunted buffalo and other game across the immense UTSA’s InstituteUTSA’s Cultures, of Texan #068-0154 grassland prairies. These same groups also used plant Comanche warrior resources and created large plant processing and baking features on the landscape.

  • The Other Wild West Cronk
    The Other Wild West Cronk The Other Wild West MICHAEL CRONK In The Other Wild West, the author discusses the revisionist arguments on American Old West violence as put forward by leading historians including Robert Dykstra and Lynn Perrigo, systematically debunking former work by Roger McGrath and Ray Billington on cow-town violence. Drawing on Richard Brown’s argument that Old West violence was a part of the same conflict as the Indian Wars, the author demonstrates how violence in this era was neither reduced to individual vigilantism nor white-on-white aggression. The author concludes that although conflicts were more collective, systematic and transnational than conventional understandings suggest, the myth of personal violence persists. The author discusses the value that this myth has played in forming national consciousness and bolstering political rhetoric and how this has tangled the historical credence of pop-culture with documented reality. The author holds that such confusion dispossesses non-white participants from the historical purview; those who not only played formative roles but were themselves also victims of the most violence. Because of the disinheritance intrinsic to the old west myth of personal violence, the author forwards a continual re-visitation of de-facto history. In a 1910 address to the American Historical Association Frederick Jackson Turner said “each age studies its history anew and with interests determined by the spirit of the time.”1 In his time Turner interpreted the frontier as a concept that had been integral to American identity and considered its loss a moment of great adjustment. Historians have not failed to continue reading meaning into the frontier age and the “Wild West,” often milking it of nationalist, social or political interpretations.

  • Clay Allison They Call Him the “Wild Wolf of the Washita,” and They’Re Not Far Wrong
    Clay Allison They call him the “Wild Wolf of the Washita,” and they’re not far wrong. Allison’s as vicious as a wolf and about twice as temperamental. Born in 1840 in Tennessee, he fought for the Confederacy in the War Between the States until he was discharged on account of mental problems. His physical problem—a clubfoot—does not seem to have mattered. He reenlisted with a unit that didn’t care about his mental condition. When Allison tired of the war, he drifted west into Texas to become a cowboy. Bored, he turned to outlawry and left a trail of blood behind him almost unequalled in the West. All told, he’s killed about a dozen men, most by gunfire, some by lynching or other, more gruesome means. His victims include cowboys, banditos, Union officers, and a dentist who pulled the wrong tooth when he worked on Allison. Allison tied him into his own chair and extracted two of his teeth before killing him. He even shot a man for snoring too loudly. Allison is wildest and most dangerous when he’s been drinking.

Clay Allison was born in Tennessee. Allison killed at least five men before his violent life ended in a wagon accident on July 1, 1887, in Pecos, Texas. Joseph L. Hood, first sheriff of Bexar County, was killed in a melee with Comanche chiefs within the Town Council House during the course of peace negotiations (prior to April 18). 1841 Renowned black lawman Bass Reeves was born this year or perhaps the previous year in Arkansas, then removed with the Reeves family to Grayson County, Texas. Reeves was apparently the first black deputy U.S. marshal to be appointed west of the Mississippi. Charles W. Jackson, a participant in the Regulator-Moderator War, was killed. A year earlier, a judge sent to try Jackson for killing Joseph G. Goodbread was himself killed near Pulaski, Texas, after fleeing for his life. Thomas D. Yocum, proprietor of the Yocum Inn in the Big Thicket country of East Texas, was executed by a Regulator posse on information that Yocum had murdered several people. 1843 John V. Morton, first sheriff of Fort Bend County, was killed by his former deputy, George W. Pleasants (February 7). 15 TX01e01.qxp 1/25/2008 9:01 AM Page 16 16 200 TEXAS OUTLAWS 1844 Texas Ranger George W.
