Break
In 1876, Calamity decided to take a break from her scouting duties in For Laramie. She met a wagon train that was headed for Deadwood in South Dakota. She hitched a ride in the wagon of the sharply dressed Charlie Utter, the wild western figure.
Claim To Fame
Charlie’s claim to fame was rather interesting. He was Wild Bill Hickok’s right-hand man. The professional gambler who could put away several drinks, Wild Bill immediately formed a friendship with Calamity Jane as their train moved forward.
