William Hickok and for a while he went by the name William Haycock during the Civil War most newspapers referred to him as William a clock until 1869 it was in 1857 that he claimed himself a 160 acre tract in Kansas and a year later he was elected one of the first four constables of Monticello Township and in 1859 he joined the russell majors and Waddell freight company in which was the parent company of the Pony Express it was in 1860 that while bill was injured by cinnamon bear so he claimed as the story goes he was driving a freight team from Independence Missouri to Santa Fe New Mexico he claimed the bear and his Cubs were blocking the road so he claimed down and shot the bear in his head sounds a little strange he then says the bullet ricocheted upset the bear the bear attacked him and crushed Hickox body hmm the story continues as all stories do and he said he took another shot and wounded two bears paw then the bear grabbed him but he cut its throat the bear died so he says anyway even if the story wasn't true he was laid up in bed for four months so something happened what do you think now in April of 1861 while bill had become a teamster for the Union Army and Sedalia Missouri I suppose you're wondering what a teamster is well the original meaning was someone who drove a team that team could be a lot of things mules box horses so I'm assuming it was a team of horses maybe uh maybe attached to a wagon or something let me know if you know now at the end of 1861 he was a wagon master and a wagon master is I believe somebody who oversees a group of wagons it was in 1862 that while bill was discharged of a Civil War service reasons are unknown no do you remember the guy who tried to nickname Wild Bill duck bill that was David McCain Lee's and he met up with him again when David went into the Rock Creek station demanding an overdue payment from Horace Wellman the station manager it was for a property payment that Horace owed David anyway as the story goes wall bill shot him I think in the back of his mind he remembered this dude trying to nickname him duck bill three people were tried for that incident but it was found that they acted in self-defense that was possibly Wild Bill's first killing but as the good guy he was he went to the man's Widow and apologized and offered her 35 bucks which was the only money he had it was July 21 of 1865 and while bill was in Springfield he had a disagreement with one of his gambler acquaintances his name was Davis Tutt they had quite a few disagreements.
