...and
the the dead.
Ben
Hodges: Dead cowboy
This
is a bit tough to read, but the epitaph is "Self-Styled Desperado." He
was born in 1856, died 1929, and lived in and was buried
in Dodge City. He
is credited as being one of the pioneering black cowboys
fo the old west (and if you believe what you read - he
was also more than just a bit of a con man and scoundrel). The photo is from Old
West Gravesites,
