This is the tenth episode of eleven that will discuss Billy the Kid and the Lincoln County War that took place in New Mexico.
In this episode, Billy the Kid, Billy Wilson, Rudabaugh, and Tom Pickett are taken from Stinking Springs to Fort Sumner before heading to Las Vegas and then to Santa Fe. There is a tense moment on the train platform in Las Vegas. The men are interviewed by various newspapers. The Governor still ignores Billy & his pardon as the men sit in the Santa Fe jail. Finally, Billy’s taken to Mesilla to sit in the corrupt Judge Bristol’s court.
I end the episode with the court hearing, the verdict, and the sealing of Billy the Kid’s fate.

The Civil War in the Southwest: The Rebel’s Crumbling Empire, The End of the War in Arizona Territory, & Confederate Jasmine
This episode covers the end of the Civil War in the Southwest as the Rebels Retreat completely out of New Mexico. It covers the low morale of the Confederate Troops, Sibley’s woes, the final battle in the Territory at Paraje, eighteen-year-old Felix Robert Collard’s odyssey through the Jornada del Muerte, the troubles with the locals, and more. I then finish the series with a brief background of myself before I read the short story Confederate Jasmine from V.N. Ebert’s Georgia Buddha in its entirety.
