	Cassell, Pennywitt and Browning Home Page :Information about Bass Reeves
		Bass Reeves was often called "one of the bravest men this country has ever known." "Invincible," others noted, "a Deputy U.S. Marshal whose devotion to duty was beyond reproach." He was honored posthumously with the National Cowboy Hall of Fame's "Great Westerner" at a Western Heritage Award program.
		Reeves had once boasted that he knew Indian Territory "like a cook knows her kitchen" and, as a result of his skill and his knowledge of the territory, (gleaned in part from living among the Indians for a time) he was able to make substantial sums as a scout and tracker for peace officers.
		Reeves told her this was the first opportunity he had to stop after being pursued by a posse that had put three bullet holes in his hat.

		Reeves, born into a Paris, Texas, slave family in 1838, was the first African-American to be commissioned a U.S. deputy marshal in the flatlands west of the Mississippi River.
		Reeves, although born in Texas, severed his ties with the state in the 1850s when an argument over a game of cards with his young master, George Reeves, turned violent.
		Reeves pummeled George - who went on to become speaker of the Texas House of Representatives in 1881 - and fled across the border into what was then Indian Territory and now is Oklahoma.

		Reeves was born in south-east London in 1943, and attended Lewisham Grammar School, where his friends included future drummer Jon Hiseman and future keyboardman Dave Greenslade.
		Reeves' serious interest in music dates from his teens, and despite the fact that his teen years coincided with the skiffle boom and the first wave of home-grown rock 'n' roll in England, and he initially wanted to learn an instrument far from the heart of rock 'n' roll, the trombone.
		Reeves' first fully professional group involvement was with a dance/show band at age 16 -- he came to consider this experience invaluable for the training it gave him in playing dozens of popular standards from across several decades of music.

		For Reeves, who endured a string of critical and box-office drubbings after 1994's blockbuster Speed, it's a chance to build on the career clout garnered from the cyber-thriller The Matrix, one of 1999's defining hits.
		To hear Reeves talk about his non-acting passions is to see the boy within the man. He enthusiastically plucks away at his bass despite harsh criticism from music snobs.
		Reeves got to put his dedication and preparation to the test one day when the cast and crew were allowed to film before 65,000 fans at halftime of a Baltimore Ravens game.

	Deputy U.S. Marshal Bass Reeves
		Bass Reeves, negro, was buried yesterday and the funeral was attended by a large number of white people--men who in the early days knew the old deputy marshal and admired him as a faithful officer and respected him as an honest man.
		Absolutely fearless and knowing no master but duty, the placing of a writ in his hands for service meant that the letter of the law would be fulfilled though his life paid the penalty.
		Bass Reeves would not have served under such a regime.
