Chronology of Significant Events 19 1908 Pat Garrett was killed near Las Cruces, New Mexico Territory (February 29). Although Wayne Brazil claimed self-defense, James Miller has long been suspected of the crime. 1909 Notorious killer Clyde Chestnut Barrow was born near Telico, Texas (March 24). 1913 Pink Higgins died of a heart attack at home in West Texas (December 18). 1927 Marshal Ratliff, better known as the Santa Claus robber, escaped from a Cisco bank on December 23 with a large amount of cash, only to leave it behind in a stolen getaway car, after mortally wounding two lawmen. One month earlier, the Texas Bankers Association had increased the Dead Bank Robber program reward from $500 to $5,000, today worth about $55,000. Ratliff was lynched two years later following an escape attempt. 1934 Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow were ambushed and killed eight miles south of Gibsland, Louisiana, on State Highway 154 (May 23). 1935 Barrow gang stalwarts Joe Palmer and Ray Hamilton were executed (May 10). tdt1e01.indd 19 3/13/2009 4:06:39 PM
