	AXFORD, HAROLD, EDITOR; PARIS SWAZY PFOUTS. Four Firsts for a Modest Hero: The Autobiography of Paris Swazy Pfouts (written in the year 1868, published in the year 1968 . . . Montana:, Grand Lodge, Ancient . . Masons of Montana,, 1968., First Edition, Hardcover. Hardback octavo in blue cloth imprinted in black. 109 pages illustrated by photographs. This appears to be a hardbound copy of a book originally produced in stiff blue paper covers still present inside this hardbound copy. The first publication of this diary dated 1868 and held in the Montana Masonic Grand Lodge. A scarce and important primary account of the activities of the Montana Vigilantes. Much of the diary concerns Pfouts' activities as a Mason, as a Democrat and southern sympathizer, and as a business man in St. Joseph, Denver and Helena. However, he is best known as the Chief of the Vigilance Committee that executed 21 men in the Montana mining districts in 1864, in his view putting an end to lawlessness. He claims that 1000 men were finally active in the Vigilantes, and that "every good man in the territory was an active member of it." Barely a hint of wear to the extremities. Clean and bright inside, crisp with a sound binding. Near fine.

	AXFORD, HAROLD, EDITOR; PARIS SWAZY PFOUTS. Four Firsts for a Modest Hero: The Autobiography of Paris Swazy Pfouts (written in the year 1868, published in the year 1968 . . . Montana:, Grand Lodge, Ancient . . Masons of Montana,, 1968., First Edition, Hardcover. Hardback octavo in blue cloth imprinted in black. 109 pages illustrated by photographs. This appears to be a hardbound copy of a book originally produced in stiff blue paper covers still present inside this hardbound copy. The first publication of this diary dated 1868 and held in the Montana Masonic Grand Lodge. A scarce and important primary account of the activities of the Montana Vigilantes. Much of the diary concerns Pfouts' activities as a Mason, as a Democrat and southern sympathizer, and as a business man in St. Joseph, Denver and Helena. However, he is best known as the Chief of the Vigilance Committee that executed 21 men in the Montana mining districts in 1864, in his view putting an end to lawlessness. He claims that 1000 men were finally active in the Vigilantes, and that "every good man in the territory was an active member of it." Barely a hint of wear to the extremities. Clean and bright inside, crisp with a sound binding. Near fine. USD 194.40 [Appr.: EURO 130.75 \| £UK 116.75 \| JP¥ 17286] Book number: 8140 Click here to order or inquire at The Gallagher Collection.
