            Sitting is famous INDIAN SCOUT Col. Dick Rutledge taken in Denver Colorado. He was born in 1845 and in 1926 was the only living Indian scout. He worked with KIT CARSON, Col. Dick Rutledge was the last survivor of Kit Carson's Scouts. When a small boy he moved with his parents to Kansas and settled in historic Salt Creek Valley, near Leavenworth. He was a neighbor to playmate and schoolmate William Cody, who afterward became famous as "Buffalo Bill" Cody. In 1866 Col. Dick left Kansas with a wagon train bound for Denver Colorado. Andrew Rutledge, brother of Dick, had already gone to Colorado. The two went to Trinidad when they met Kit Carson and joined his Scouts. In personal appearance, Colonel Rutledge was almost the double of "Buffalo Bill". He was 6 feet Three and straight as an arrow, and wore long flowing hair and a goatee, in the traditional scout style made famous by "Buffalo Bill." 
Col. Rutledge died at his home in Denver April 9, 1940, at the age of almost 95 years.
