1895: John Wesley Hardin shot in El Paso

…as if the shootings over there would’ve ever stopped.

Anyway, after reading this account and living in Texas for 12 years, I’d say very little has changed about El Paso or Huntsville. I think I’ll always prefer the UK musician John Wesley Harding and his melodious voice over a cowboy with a bad temper. Most people probably associate the historical killer through the Bob Dylan song.
