The aftermath of the Northfield raid left Cole Younger with injuries so severe they became a chilling testament to the desperate and violent end of the James-Younger Gang’s infamous run. During the final standoff at Hanska Slough, he suffered a gunshot wound that entered just behind the right angle of his jaw, traveled through the roof of his mouth, and lodged in the left upper jaw—an injury that left lasting damage and immense pain. But that was only one of many. Cole also had at least four wounds in his back, though it remains unclear whether they occurred during the Northfield shootout or in the swampy chase that followed.

Shotgun blasts left their mark on him as well. Buckshot had pierced his left shoulder blade and struck again just below it, each lodging several inches deep. Another shot entered the middle part of his arm, angling upward, while yet another wound passed behind his armpit. Every injury added to a picture of a man who had endured one of the most brutal pursuits in the history of frontier crime. His body bore the evidence of an escape attempt that pushed him past the limits of human endurance, and yet, somehow, he remained alive, even conscious, through it all.

The toll wasn’t just in bullet wounds. When Cole’s boots were finally removed, it was clear his feet had suffered terribly during the desperate trek through swamp and wilderness. They were so damaged from days of relentless movement that even removing the boots caused visible harm. These were not the wounds of a quick battle, but of prolonged agony—signs of a man who had kept going through pain most would never survive. His injuries told a grim story of the collapse of an outlaw legend and the high cost paid by those who tried to outrun justice on the ever-shrinking frontier.

A tough hombre for sure. From the looks of the photo he would have to become a left handed shooter if his left eye still worked.


My new car has a button for pretty much everything. Even has one that says rear wiper. Still too afraid to try that one.
