Indian Territory, Five Civilized Tribes Part 3

Howdy and Welcome back to Wild West Deep Dives. This our is our 3rd and final episode of our deep dive into Indian Territory. I may sound a bit different in this episode, I am coming out of a cold, my apologize. But this week, we will discuss some of the battles and wars that took place in the territory, hearing from the Hanging Judge himself, and finish with some famous outlaws and lawmen.

Next Deep Dive series will be on the legend himself, Bass Reeves. He was born into slavery and became one of the first black United States Deputy Marshals. He would repeatedly travel into Indian Territory and return with a wagon load of prisoners, from murders to whiskey peddlers, he brought ‘em in. He arrested the infamous Belle Starr, chased Ned Christie, killed Bob Dozier and even arrested his own son.
