Duel Between Old Jim Baker and a Frenchman in Frontier Wyoming
The article recounts a famed frontier duel near the Green River trading post involving Old Jim Baker, a friend of Kit Carson and Jim Bridger. After a quarrel with a French rival trader, both men fired from cabin doors, then retreated to rearm and drink, ending the duel in August with unsteady shots. Baker, born in 1803, became a legendary hunter and guide, later settling in Denver and aiding frontier expeditions before dying in 1898.
