After the war he became one of the original officers of the Tenth US Cavalry, the Buffalo Soldiers. He was courtmartialed and cashiered. Caused trouble in Sale Lake City, Leavenworth, Hays City, and wound up in Denver. He tried to rob an Army paymaster in 1873, was shot and they said he'd die. He survived. Escaped from his hospital bed, recaptured, imprisoned, escaped from there, shot and captured again, more obituaries printed, but he survived again. Then he was released in 1875, jumped a mine in Colorado, and was killed for the last time. <br />In his obits of the time they even wrote that he "is the stuff of dime store novels." So I wonder if anyone into these pulps recognizes any story that sounds like this, I wonder if anyone based a story on him. He was making national headlines.<br />Thanks!
