People used to tell us Black Bart was buried there, but from the sound of this I don't think it was true. Just probably told us that to keep us out of the cemetery. I sort of started liking the guy by the time I finished reading the accounting.Paisley Kirkpatrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06401039126457210324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1822452633282744192.post-82873581627164204942012-10-02T12:26:04.205-05:002012-10-02T12:26:04.205-05:00Interesting story Miss Paisley.

I always thought Black Bart was a fictional character ... like the villain who would tie women to railroad tracks in all those silent nelodramas. lol. Sounds like Bart was a nice man (despite his crimes). I loved the fact he was so literary . I do have a question. Where was Oroville?

Funny. He was a great character, wasn't he. I'm trying to think if a movie was ever made about him.
