Hank
Resident of Little Bend, Texas[1] in 1867. (September 14, 1830 – September 15, 1903)[2]
A long-time resident of Little Bend, Hank had known the Maverick family since he was a boy.[2]
On August 11,1867,[2] he was amongst a crowd of local Johnny Rebs in the streets of Little Bend being recruited as hands for the Miller cattle drive by Bret and Bart Maverick. When a few of competing rancher Jessie Hayden's men interrupted to accuse the Mavericks of being Galvanized Yankees, Hank was one of the men to stand up for the Mavericks' integrity as "Texans from way back."[1]
The Mavericks hired Hank for the cattle drive and Bart assigned him the choice duty of riding point. At the end of the drive from Little Bend to Fort Adobe, Arizona Territory, he was paid $60 and allowed to keep the horse, saddle, blanket, gun and pair of boots with which he had been supplied.[1]
