Curry, Kid

Curry, Kid

▪ American outlaw
byname of  Harvey Logan  
born 1865, Dodson, Mo., U.S.
died July 7, 1903, near Parachute, Colo.?

      American gunslinger who became notorious as the most quick-tempered killer of the Wild Bunch (q.v.), a group of Western outlaws. His brothers, Lonny and Johnny, also gained reputations as Western badmen, as did their uncle, George Sutherland (“Flat Nose”) Curry.

      Kid Curry, primarily a bank and train robber, was imprisoned in 1902, escaped in June 1903, robbed a train in Parachute, Colo., on July 7, and, according to Pinkerton agents, was wounded by a pursuing posse and shot himself dead. Another story has him surviving, joining Butch Cassidy in South America, and dying in Bolivia in 1909, while yet another has him escaping to Idaho and dying there sometime after 1925.
