from Housetop, looks dot com welcome to the part time doing: a charter boarding and I'm thirty and if you're fired the wild West or maybe a huge why so out of tv as a kid you're, probably at least sort of familiar with the character of the loan ranger Affectional around a long and who roamed the American West trying to help people fight bad guys and enact justice and the thing character, has been featured a number of ways on the radio on tv shows and movies and in all of those he says, has overall story has been pretty similar, huh a guy named John Reed, whose part of a group of six Texas Rangers one day. Five of his group are killed by outlaws and Survives and his rescued by native american name Tonto after tons Nurses and back to hell. Threed makes himself a black mask and

the loan ranger, most representations of the loan Ranger also feature that unmistakable theme song of the William Tell Overture. Let's take a lesson that fund so hopefully that You guys in the mood for this pod Caston another common point you'll, see in most representations of the loan ranger is that it's usually played by a white actor, but there and he who believe the inspiration for the loan, Ranger Character was actually a man named Bass, Reeves, who was not only

Lack. He was a former slave they raised, who became a? U S: death Marshall is known as one of the first black lawmen west of the Mississippi River an author one of the bravest and Beth LAW. Man as well, in fact, he's been called one of the brave men this country has ever known. So that's right. It's not too hard to see how he would have inspired the loan ranger character. However, wreathed life wasn't entirely without com. Mercy. He had more than one incident that almost compromise his reputation and his position as an upholder of the law, but it's those sort of grey areas that some might say, make him all the more interesting so weakened. Take a look at real story and some of his most famous adventures, but first we're gonna, look at how, as a black man in the eighteen hundred, he became a deputy Marshall in the first place. So Ass trees was born into slavery and around July eighteen, thirty, eight in either Texas or arkansas- and we should say here,

a lot of the deep these details about his life, especially about Reeves. Early life are a kind of actually a lot of them derive from oral history. That's been passed along throughout the year, so perhaps only fitting that we start out with one of these more debatable facts. Some historians believe he was born Van Buren, Arkansas, well understood more likely. He was born in Paris, Texas we do know that, always that wreathed and his parents were owned by a man named William Ass Treves, who, with a farmer and a politician, that's where he got his last name from, of course, and according to the Oxford african American Study, found Reeves, worked in the cotton fields as the water boy when he was young and that's reason hearing adventurous story than these songs about love outlaws and not she's known about roofs parents, but apparently it really his mother, that hurry that was so enthralled with violence and guns, and these less than upset

Man, maybe a little afraid her boy would become an outlaw himself by the time the civil war broke out, though in eighteen sixty one reads was working as the personal servant of William reads: the Sun George Rees, who, with a colonel in the Confederate Army and organise the eleventh, Cavalry regiment for grace and colleague, Texas. What exactly happened to bath reads during the war? The little bit sketchy, though, according to infect Le Peter Britannica, Wreathed claimed to have served in the battles of P ridge, Magua and Missionary Ridge under Colonel George Reefs, but the reefs family, the slave owner Reeves, that is claimed and many historians believe the Bass Reeves actually ran away fairly early on in the war. Supposedly, Bass and George got into an argument while they were playing cards and bath attack. George knocking him unconscious, but by taxes- law. At that time, Bass Reeves could have been killed for attacking his master, like that, so he took off for indian territory,

and we talked a little bit about indian territory and applied castrated last February called who is America's first black millionaire which was about a woman named director in episode. We learn that indian territory and the eighteen hundreds was basically in the area that would later become the state of Oklahoma and the early nineteen. Hundreds black people who lived There were in kind of an interesting position. Initial indian tribes, captain asleep, is just as white people dead elsewhere, North America, but after something called the treaty of eighteen sixty tax between the? U S government and the five civilized tribes, which included the creek, the Cherokee, the chalk, tar, the chicken and criminal? These tribes to abolish slavery and make the former slaves thereafter known as Friedman full members of their tribes that had quote equal interest in the soil. So sickly, former slaves could own land and some even

served as indian policemen through indian territory was a great place for real to escape to, after supposedly attacking his master, probably for a lot of the same reasons. It was a popular place for hours. To go and hide out in even after the war just warrant a lot of towns and villages the Indians. There had jurisdiction over themselves, they really subject to: U S, laws, there's a good place to go through. Went to indian territory found refuge with the creek and seminal Indians and while he lived among- He really picked up their customs became. We were in the languages. That's been a theme of our recent pod cat and besides TAT, though, besides going in living with Indians in indian territory. It sort of unclear what exactly Reeves did during the war, according to an article by art, T Burton and Wild West wreathed. Could part of the union's first indian Home Card Regiment under an indian name or he might have even serve with one of them.

Bela Union Indian Van some- following the civil war and the Emancipation proclamation, Reeves left indian territory and settled in Van Buren Arkansas This time he married a woman named Nellie Jenny who he ended up having ten kids worth five girls and five boys by the seventies. He was early in the living as a farmer rancher and also occasionally served as a guide for a deputy. U S, marshals, who were going into indian territory to hunt for out So his knowledge really came in handy there then, and eight seventy five adjudge Isaac see Parker took over the Fort Psmith Federal Court in Arkansas, and partner became known as the head judge for all the death sentences that he handed down in his court when he took over his court had jurists. Sean over all of Western Arkansas, an indian territory, which was an area of about seventy five thousand miles in size and

with the largest federal court in: U S, history, just in terms of its size. So, as we mentioned, indian territory was a popular place for outlaws to hide out and it was considered the most dangerous area in the country that was gonna be tough, going for Judge Parker so when he came on board, he decided pretty much right away that he wanted to crack down on criminals in that area in particular. So one of the first things he did was order that two hundred new? U S deputy marshals, be hired, though these marshals could arrest, blacks and whites. You weren't members of the tribes in indian territory, that's what they had power to do. The Indians, of course, had their own law enforcement and courts for their people, so they were outside of of parkers jurisdiction. Parker also decided that black men would be perfect for these new deputy Marshall positions, because a lot of Indians

didn't trust, white deputies, some white deputies hadn't always treated them farewell misprized there, but there were there was this precedent of black Friedman who were kind of part of the tries part of the community. So Indians tended cheat black people a little more therefore they'd make good potential marshals reefs. The killer was just perfect for one of these positions. After all, as we mentioned, he knew indian territory. Well, he once said that he, the area, like quote a cook, knows her kitchen, ailing. We have some exciting news yeah. I am wildly excited

and people will have another opportunity to watch. We cry at art, yeah you set out its so called at its though not a calm situation at all. Our trip to Paris last year was really successful. Set were doing another similar trip this year, but this time to Roman Florence, its May fourteen through twenty first twenty twenty and like last time it is with a company called defined destinations who is playing out this ultra for us yeah enduring Thou week long trip. We are gonna, see some of the great art that we have talked about on the show many times, including the glandular David. We are going to go to Tuscany, we're gonna visit Saint Petersburg Silica. We are going to the Sistine Chapel, so it's going to be a fantastic trip, even get the whole list of places that we are going and information about, looking at defined destination

Dot com scroll down to the roman foreign strip was stuffy, miss than history glass or come over to our social media. We have posts about it. There too, it seems like you to be easy, but it's not just getting out of bed and getting your day started. Trying to accomplish everything you need to do in your day that to do list as a lot easier when you're getting news stories, music to lift your mood in preparing for the day ahead, get connected to the things that make you laugh and make you think or make you want to reach out and share with a friend every morning with us, it's Elvis Joanne in the morning show listen to us on cue, one or two or anywhere in the world on the Iheart Radio, APP. Knowledge of indian languages in customs was a huge plus two, because Parker really wanted to keep good relations with the tribes that close relationship with India.

And actually might have influenced the loan ranger story to some extent through the character of Tonto. So Reefs was commissioned a deputy. You asked my show in eighteen. Seventy five went to work. Incidentally, you just mentioned his his close relationship with any chance that came in part because of his mastery of their some languages. That mastery of languages is even more impressive when you consider that reefs was illiterate, so I mean that sounds difficult enough to have several languages in your head and not know how to read or write. In your own language, in your own language, but for his Marshall work, he'd have to get somebody, You read arrest, warrants and subpoenas and then memorize the names of the outlaws, any other details, then and head out from so now we're getting a little bit into his work, which is really interesting. I mean a lot of details about his work is oh kind of border on legend, which is why his adventures make for such good stories. I think that

what we know for sure is that he was a natural at what he did not seem to be. He was physically well suited for four. Thing he was about six weeks to in anywhere from one hundred and eighty two hundred pounds. According to another, article of burdens and new crisis reefs personally two draft that intimidating frame of mind snazzy clothes. He always had a polished, for example, and he liked to a big black hat was slightly upturn in the front more often than though, especially when he was after an outlaw Reeves, would wear skies met was kind of his trademark. He disguise himself as it how boy or a preacher, farmer or even an outlaw, so this is also of a loan, Ranger Irish element to his glaring ass, except maybe even a little more sang yeah. I think so he went to some serious

couple in these disguised as I thank and one really authentic. Yet someone really well known mission Reeves was pursuing two out laws in the Red River Valley of the Chickasaw nation, and he heard that they were hiding out somewhere near the Texas border. So he wrote that way with this policy by the way. At this time, deputy marshals would try around indian territory with a few passing then a a wagon just because yeah. They were patrolling in hunting for outlaws and was so vast mean a typical loop was around a typical loop that they would travel. Would around eight hundred mile ones. I wrap put the eight hundred my rights that they be there for a while. So the ass. He sat at camp about twenty eight miles from where these two outlaws. They are pursuing we're supposed to be hiding out at their mother's house. So there

if disguised himself as a tramp. He really paid attention to every detail to he removed the heels from an old pair of shoes. He carried it came with them, and then he put on a floppy hat that he had shot with a few bullet holes. To look on rough that he asked, though, of course concealed the handcuffs than the pistol in the badge that he was carrying. Beneath his clothes, then he started walking twenty eight miles travelling on foot to the mother's house when he got there. He asked her for some food in a complaint at his feet, really hurt concede been walking in trying to escape from this party that was pursuing em, the mother, relieve them. Dies with them. She let a man she fat. Am she told him that our sons were running away from the law to she even suggested that maybe he should hang out with her and came up with her own sensor. They could protect each other. Son came home. They agreed to this plan the deal that mom has set out for them and then

night. They set up a separate room for reads to sleep in here, you said that no, we should all sleep in the same room in case. Something happens that way we can protect each other Housewares wheat, though he handcuff them without then waking up and when morning came they realize what had happened and wreathed Adam right on back to care about twenty miles. Lay the mom followed them for at least three of those miles, cursing Reeves the entire way. After imagine, she would be pretty upset about the whole thing he whispered. Happy about it. There, the reward of returning those guys in was five thousand dollars. Typically, these marshals got paid when they brought the outlaws back to court to be tried So that's what he's pretty amusing, but it doesn't totally illustrate how dangerous this job really was. Huffing outlaws unearthly right, Reeves was shot out several times during his career as a Marshall. His belt was shot into two once another time has Burne was shot off

still another time, his bridle reign was caught by a bullet. But it said that he himself was now actually wounded, which I think is just fascinating, or he was a real gun experts to his weapon of choice with a Winchester rifle. But he was also carry round to call revolvers that were position but forward on his bell for easy access, and conveniently for a ranger alarm in he was Amber Dextra. So pretty much equally God, no matter which hand he was shooting with probably especially happy when you're shooting on horseback, hey listeners. I wanted to tell you about a new podcast from my heart. Radio called the women hosted by rose red. It fascinating and deep dive interview show where rose talks, to change makers in disruptors and she finds out what really drives them. So she will ask each of them.

remember how the fourteen year old version of yourself, if you could write to that kid, what would you say? I'm Chelsea arson join me on my podcast, dear young rocker were each week.

During a rough you're, not alone, you lived through a living through it. Now you got this during the latter country from Google Elvis production has created a hosted by mutual consent and executive produced by Joint Brennan of disgrace, land, listen to dear young rocker, on the heart, radio, app apple pie, costs or wherever you get your podcast real was still really careful, even though he was heavily armed, though it said that he rode grants italian with a white blaze on its face. So just the loan ranger. He has the signature, whore chastity steed, yet my reward of labour law then don't worry. I also aware that he asked

some other horses around for his undercover work. Apparently, if you wrote a horse that was to fancy that would tip off me, was that you were Marshall, no matter what kind of guys are out that you were wearing, so he couldn't just write his red horse I have to imagine two of you had such a distinctive force to read stallion with a white blades. People would begin to to recognise that pretty easily very true most of all, though researchers unbelievably brave, he really didn't, seem to be afraid of anything. For one example, there was a place any miles. West of Fort that was known as the deadline sort of the end. Civilization, and when deputy marshals cross that line, they were thought to be as good as dead you're. Taking your life into her own hands by crossing the line, but reefs really just cut as a challenge. He would go riding across the deadlines several times just to to do it,

but his bravery is maybe most evident and the encounter where he comes as close as he ever did to losing his life not happen in eighteen, eighty four, when he ambushed by three outlaws the branch or brothers they were wanted a horse, stealing robbery and murder. When I am him, they told him to get off his horse and to keep his hand away from his gun by Reeves did not follow their instruct. At all. He stayed really com and showed them warrants he had for their arrest, and he just stuff, you know what day is it? So I can make a note of this for the government to make sure my paper. Work is good at that point. The outlaws just thought he was easy and started laughing at him and while they were distracted, while they were still amused, reads: shot two of them dead, diverted on barrel of the third and then killed him and reads actually killed quieter, outlaws during his career, even white ones, which might have thought him lynched and other areas of the country and I'm

not sure on this point, if he actually got paid for the ones that he killed, I've seen sort of different opinion in various sources out there. So if anyone out there knows, if you get paid for the ones that you kill, you arrange languages. Let us now we're not sure how this whole deputy Marshall thing worked in that respect, but of first as we hinted at earlier, there is more to the story than just reeves wines, as you might imagine, with the line of work he was in. His life was tainted a little bit with scandal to the biggest one had to do with the death and eighteen. Eighty four of his black cook William Leech. So early that April, when wreathed party was camping out near the Canadian River Legion he's got into an argument that supposedly started when wreathed with dissing leeches cooking, not and there are not a good idea. Rather, things

later, though, and according to some accounts, leech poured some hot Greece down the throats of the puppy that reads had their in camp with them. After that reads, furious shot leech, so nothing The aim of this incident for a while, but then in January of eighteen. Eighty facts wreathed was indicted for free decree murder, arrested and held in jail for six months until he could make Bonn cut a shocking that the same Islam and couldn't make bond for six but I know, apparently made quite a bit of cash jarring criminal. So trial, though started October. Eighteen. Eighty seven in real time really great attorneys who brought in ten witnesses for his defense. He testified that he had argued with leech, but it wasn't really that big of a deal

and then later, while trying to dislodge a bullet from his Winchester Rifle the gun had accidentally miss, fired and happen to hit and kill. Each Reeves was acquitted, but the tree depleted his savings and he had to move his family to a different home outside of Van Buren. And after that, reefs went back to catching outlaws, he was eventually stationed in different areas and eighteen. Eighty three he'd already transferred from Fort Smith to the federal court at Paris, Texas and then, eighteen. Ninety eight he transferred again term as Kogi, which is where he is until Oklahoma became estate in nineteen o seven, but tat one more brush with scandal later in his career after returning from one of his trips, deliver prisoners to federal jail in Moscow key. He learned that Own son had been charged with murdering his wife and was somewhere hiding out an indian territory so of course,

going whose son there is none of the other deputies wanted the job of bringing the kid and wreaths, of course, with adamant about doing it himself. I'm gonna have to imagine partly to cause. He didn't want something to happen to you. Right it took him two weeks to to get em but reads returned with his son, whom he later turned over to the court. His son ended up in Leavenworth present another place where our podcast subjects seem to be going lately, but with events pardoned an apparently never got into any more trouble reef serve. The deputy? U S, marshal and indian territory for a total of thirty two years and was the only one who did so from Judge Parkers Appointment until Oklahoma Statehood all told he said to have arrested more than three thousand outlaws killed about fourteen, though very likely there may have been more than fourteen killed. His work ended after

homer became state and, after that he walked downtown, beat for the Moscovici Police Department for two years. And there was apparently never a crime on his feet. So this was kind of a relaxing retirement Obama super, haven't met your crimes on on reads the stay off. Maybe but it didn't. Last too long, Reeves Data, January, twelfth nineteen ten after being diagnosed with bright disease. So is the real loan ranger. We have to go back to that question. We poles in the title of this podcast. Well as we and he said to have influenced or inspired the character of you some details of his life are quite different from the loan rangers, but it's easy to see. His brave personality in his wild adventures would have influence detail about a hero of the wild West yeah. I mean, after all, he's been called quote one of the most successful law men in american history. That sounds like somebody worth making a tv show on. He was also the first ACT

American inducted into the Great Westerners hall of the National Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City in eighteen. Ninety two and then on December Twenty ten, he was inducted into the Opel whom a law enforcement hall of Fame and in a vampire twenty eleven. These wars is kept on being heaped on him, Uncle Homo state Legislature path and act officially declaring the bridge that passes over the Arkansas River between Moscow, VIII and Fort Gibson Oklahoma as bath three memorial bridge, so people kind of continue to commemorate ham and researchers. Life art Burton whose articles we mentioned in this at the sewed has a book on him called gun, Silver STAR and theirs. I want a bottom Carter as we don't know who, but will find out what I guess so every year we don't know So a new loan arrange your movie coming out in two thousand thirteen stars: Johnny Depp is Tonto Army here, as the loan Ranger and Helen Bottom Carter.
