Visiting with Brushy Bill

[MissyS]

I found this article interesting about a boy that had a visit with Brushy Bill. Why Brushy would have a loaded  gun under his pillow in a town that didn't lock their doors is a good question.

You would expect that behaviour in a person who have experienced a ton of violence and threats in their life. And that doesnt seem to fit the narrative of Brushy being Oliver Pleasant the farmer very well. Good info, unfortunately the link dont work any more.

It was a small quiet town, no need to have a loaded gun under a pillow, a person that doesn’t feel safe, or has the feeling  that someone is after them would likely however keep a loaded gun under their pillow, here is another link to that story, I hope this one works?
