Description
[OUTLAWS]. [JAMES-YOUNGER GANG]. Daily Arkansas Gazette. Northfield Bank robbery by Jesse James and the gang. Little Rock: 29 September 1876. 4pp., large folio (546 x 432 mm), leaves detached at spine. THE NORTHFIELD ROBBERS. On 7 September 1876, Jesse James, brother Frank James, the Younger brothers, and the rest of the gang rode into Northfield to rob the First National Bank in what would later be called a “textbook James-Younger robbery”. Local citizens realized what was happening and sprang into action by firing on the gang, leaving two robbers dead in the street and two more badly wounded. The remaining outlaws fled southwest, triggering the largest manhunt in U.S. history, which led to the capture of the Younger brothers. Each year on the weekend after Labor Day, the town comes together to celebrate the defeat of the James-Younger Gang.
