Can you spot Ted Turner?
Great outfit. You need some bandoliers and about 4 colt revolvers hanging from your chest.Will be attending a period Memorial Day service later this morning.
There is a pic of Bill Anderson somewhere with 4 colts stuck in a sash around his waist & 2 more hanging on cords around his neck. When fighting from horseback guerrilla style that's the way it was done.

Just read a biography on Jesse James about a month or so ago, went into some detail about the guerrillas he rode with.Archie Clement, Dave Poole & Bill Hendricks
A small man, Arch Clement was known as Anderson's "Little Devil".
The fictional part of Pit Mackeson in the movie "Ride With the Devil" was based loosely on Archie Clement.
When the war was over it was required that Quantrill's men officially surrender at Lexington. No one knows for sure but based on what happened plans where probably to kill some & arrest others. Rather than surrender Quantrill & a few men including Frank James left for the SE where Quantrill was killed in KY. Some of his other men immediately left for TX where they used to winter over, never to return or surrender. Those wanting to surrender & be done with it thought it would be safer for each to ride in alone instead of together. Jesse was shot off his horse while riding in. He managed to make it down along the river where he hid out until after dark, when someone came across by boat & helped him escape. He never officially surrendered.
No, don't leave it there! What happened?
In the Saloon with Clement was another former guerrilla named Hicks or Hicklin who survived the shootout, so we have his account of the events. Dave Poole had just left. The two or three men who came inside to make the arrest were part of a militia that was sent to do the job. They had primed up their courage with some drinking of their own. The witness account of Hicks (Hicklin) said that Clement & he saw the men enter the Saloon in the mirror. By the time Clement & Hicks turned & drew they were already being fired upon. Whether it was 2 men orthree men (accounts vary) 1 man died instantly & 1 died sometime later, or 2 died instantly & 1 died later. Clement & Hicks made for their horses outside where the rest of the Militia were waiting to ambush & kill Clement. Hicks was able to make his getaway safely. Hicks was very young & may not have been one of the Guerrillas they were looking to execute, so he may have been allowed to ride away.
When Jim & John Younger were in the shootout with the Pinkerton's some yrs later & John was killed the local men from town took turns sitting up all night with his body so the Pinkerton's could not claim it, & until Cole could get there. Jim Younger had to flee for his own good. John was then buried in a black cemetery until the Pinkerton's had left the area. His remains were then dug up & brought back to Lee's Summit.
