Interested documented tintype. The man in the middle is identified as "Antelope Jack" (John Thomson Jones) who was killed by the Indians during the SECOND Battle of Adobe Walls in June 1874. A group of Dodge City merchants opened a sod trading post/restaurant/ saloon a mile from the original site of the FIRST battle of Adobe Walls. The battle involved a reported 300 Indians attacking the complex. The defenders, along with "Anelope Jack", held their own but Jack and two others were killed. After that, the post was abandoned. Jack holds a rifle and has an ivory handled revolver in his belt. The man on his left wears a straw, Mexican Sombrero. They are typically armed and dressed for frontiersmen and scouts of the 1870s period.
