Billy the Kid

One of the Wild West's most infamous criminals, William H Bonny (Billy the Kid) was shot and killed here in Fort Sumner. This is his grave along with two of his gang.

His gravestone has been stolen twice, once in 1951, where it was missing for 26 years before being found again in Texas, and then again in 1981, found 4 days later in California. So now it's in a cage.
