Tom Horn himself was the source of many of the myths that circulated about him. Yet not all of his claims were false; he was an avid rope braider (he’s shown with one of his ropes in this photo of him in the jail in Cheyenne, Wyoming). But the idea that he braided the rope that hanged him stinks of legend!

Bryan Boatwright It is within the legend and myths we can extrapolate truth. Tom Horn was an extraordinary man in his time but fell victim to his own methods.

Kim Winthrop Hoffman This is perfect example of how when things don't work out then they just get worse. Obviously William Rynerson should have been hung, instead he was acquitted, thus eliminating Bilito's only opportunity to grow old gracefully, befitting a well regarded regulator.
