Fred Waite was a Chickasaw, born in Indian territory. He left to work as a cowboy in New Mexico, where he was employed by John Tunstall. He became friends with Bill Bonney, aka Billy the Kid, and was one of the "regulators" who sought vengeance for Tunstall's death. After leaving the group he returned to the Chickasaw Nation, where he lived in peace. He became a rancher, tribal legislator, and Attorney General for the Chickasaw Nation.

I hadn't noticed the pockets but was trying to figure out it that was a medal or a watch pinned on?

Jack Langrishe died before the turn of the century.

I was thinking watch but couldn’t tell either. Did Langrishe die in Deadwood?

Probably but I don't recall off hand. Or maybe Belle Fourche. He had a theater there & things were still booming ~1895 or so.

"Nobody ever saw a cowboy on the psychiatrist's couch."
