Connelly, secretary of the Kansas Historical Society, is concluding a biography of the plamsman for which he started to gather material in 1882. It will deal lTargely with the early part of Hickok's career in Kansas, often overjooked in legend and fiction. By “debunking” storiss of Hic- kok’s Herofsm, -Connelly believes, he can révéal him as “a greater Tero than fietion can make him.” “Hickok was & man of peace,” Connelly declares. “He never sought a quarrel, he never boas ed, rarely talked .of himself, tend- ed to Hig oWn affairs and did his duty. He killed when he was compelled to kill in the line of duty. He protected the weak and helpless. He was faithful to every trust. He contributed more than apy other man to making the west a decent plaes In which to live.” The real name of “Wild Bill" was Jamés Butlér Hickok. The picturesque nickname was given ing as sheriff at Deadwood, “Wild Bill” has been plctured as desperado, coward,and horo, | but Connelley insists hé was nonc of these. His Hickok is an hon- est peage officer, devoted to duty, Connelley is the author of numerous historical works, among them a five-volume history of Kentucky and a- life of John Brown.
