	Tom Horn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tom Horn was born near Memphis, Scotland County, Missouri on November 21, 1860.
		Horn was arrested for the murder by lawman Joe Lefors in 1903.
		During Horn's trial, the prosecution introduced a vague confession by Horn, taken while he was intoxicated having received the alcohol from the deputies questioning him, and using only certain parts of the entire statement made by Horn rather than the statement in it's entirity, which changed the way in which the statement was comprehended.

	Tom Horn's Rifles
		Tom Horn, legendary Indian fighter, tracker, Pinkerton man, stock detective, and some say child-killer, is believed to have used in the last few years of his life, a 1894 Winchester rifle serial #82,667 (1897 receiver) with a half magazine (also known as a button magazine) and a standard round barrel in 30WCF.
		Tom reportedly practiced constantly with this rifle, which I tend to believe, if you consider it being shipped on 6/19/1900, and Tom being arrested for the murder of Willie Nickell on January 13, 1902.
		Tom’s Winchester was one of two rifles shipped in order number 61994, from the Winchester warehouse on June 19, 1900, to a distributor in Denver.

		Tom Horn is something of a legend amongst those who have maintained an occasionally unfashionable interest in the American West.
		The finished film dispenses with Horn’s life prior to 1901 and deals with his final years as a sort of post-Watergate Western in which the free individual is framed and killed by the forces of a conservative establishment.
		Tom Horn is a slightly awkward but touching and insightful film which is not entirely satisfying but always worthwhile.

		Tom Horn finds that the simple skills he knows are of no help in dealing with the ambitions of ranchers and corrupt officials as progress marches over him and the old west.
		Horn is a gunman, drifter and marksman with a considerable reputation, and when he moseys into town the cattle ranchers see him as the key to their otherwise insoluble problems in settling their long-standing dispute with the sheepherders.
		Tom rids them of their problems, and in doing so is neatly set up to take the fall for a murder he didn't commit.

		Tom Horn is a strong bookend to McQueen's other final film, The Hunter — a movie that strikes a much lighter, humanist tone while still showcasing the fact that McQueen's acting range was broad, if subtle.
