Wild Bill Hickock not a bad man yet feared by foes
William H. Houston, a Missoula pioneer, recalls Wild Bill Hickok as not evil but formidable. He credits Hickok with guarding stages from Cheyenne to Deadwood, recounts early gunplay, race with Slade and McCanles fame, and notes Hickok's marriage to Emma Lake and death by Jack McCall in Deadwood in 1876. Houston praises Hickok's duty bound conduct and stage life under General Custer.
