Violence dictated the daily rhythms of Cole Younger's life. During
the Civil War he was selected to join Quantrill's Raiders because
he owned his own revolver. His participation in the brutal 1863
raid on Lawrence, Kansas, drove him and other guerrillas into
hiding as Union troops sought to punish the perpetrators of
atrocities including the murder of women and children.
Younger met up with Jesse James in 1866. The James and Younger
families cooperated in a series of bank and train robberies over
the next decade that led to a feeling of invincibility. That
feeling came to an end in Northfield, Minnesota, when local
citizens killed two of the gang and wounded most of the others.
Cole and his younger brothers were captured, tried, and sentenced
to life in the Minnesota State Penitentiary. But even a life
sentence could not keep Younger in prison.
Despite a career that included thirty wounds, battles with
Pinkerton detectives and Yankees, an affair with autlaw Belle
Starr, and a near-fatal confrontation with Jesse James, Cole
Younger survived to become a living legend in his home state of
Missouri. He died peacefully, a free man.
