Last Old-Time Outlaw Henry Starr Dies in Harrison Ark
Henry Starr, once the era’s most infamous bank robber, died in Harrison Arkansas at age near 46 from a bullet wound suffered four days earlier during the People’s National Bank hold up in Harrison. Starr’s life spanned rail towns and Osage country, with a long career from youth to famed robber to reformer, back to crime, and finally mortally wounded in a Missouri Arkansas cross-border crime spree. He told his son to “Go straight” on his deathbed.
