Sawyer states that Henry Hawkins (later member of the family spelled It "Ilawken) learned the wade at tan caster, Pa., worked In the Harper Ferry armory and went to St, taut oon after 1800.

' Negr It was another famous weapon, also said to have been owned once by Kit Canon, a Jffi caliber Sharps rifled carbine, made by Sharps and Hankins In Philadelphia tn 1859. These carbine were made for navy nse and had a leather covering sewed on the entire length of the bap rel to prevent rust One of the partnen tn the firm which made this gun was Christina Sharps who began making rifles, which were used Jn the Mexican war, although his first patent was not Issued until 1813. However, tt was not until 1S59 that the Sharps rifles became famous. Then one fall day In that year old John Brown attacked Harpers Ferry and over the wire flashed the news that Brown and Ms men were armed with "Sharps and that one of Browns sons had shot and killed the mayor of the town with that weapon. When the Civil war broke out the famous Pennsylvania "Buck Tall" regiment mnrehed to war armed with these Improved "man killers." a short gnn of JJ0 caliber with a sword bayonet Instead of caps they naed a tape which waa colled In chamber dose to the tube and when the soldier was ready to lire the tape was pulled up so that one end would cover the tube and the hummer would strike the percussion tape. Another Sharps rifle, naed In the Civil war, was a A2 caliber and used linen cartridge. "Their rapidity n fire and accuracy enabled a soldier tnnrksnmn to htt hit enemy Brat." say Sawyer. "And the renown of Civil war companies of Infantry armed with Sharpe rifles eoon rave rise to the tandninry term Sharpshooters." But It remained fur a later Sharps to hrln that rifle maker hts greatest fame. That was th old Sharps bnfTnlo gun. Tide was the model made from 1873 to 1880 which used a tnelalHc enrtridge and was made In three calibers. .43 and .30. These rifles had a thick henry bar rel and the total, weight of the weapon wn from fourteen to eighteen ponnds. The bi.llet fired from such a weapon had a tremendous slim king power, even at s range of i quarter of a mile or more. In fact, one of the moat fnmotta shots In American history was that made by BUlv Dlson s buffalo hunter, at the battle of Adrt Wall In the Texas hinhnndle In 1874. Popular tradition hns preserved flte tale of thla shot and exaggerated It until It had Dixon killing nn Indian at a mile and a half! Here la what plxon himself hns to say about It In the story of hla life which he dictated before Id death In 11H3 and which was published by his widow. Airs. Olive K. Dixon, the next year:.

Although so many of the rifles of these Pennsylvania craftsmen were carried into Kentucky by the pioneers who crossed over Into that Promised Lahd before and during the Revolution as to give this type of arm the name of "Kentucky rifle," the number waa not enough to supply the frontiersmens needs In battling the savages who were trying In vain to stem the tide of white Invasion. Bo It waa only natural that they should prevail upon one of the Pennsylvania rifle makers to establish a gun aim; In the new country and some time before 171)0 a certain Mills, aald to nave been an apprentice of Decherd, waa turning out "Kalntucks" at llarrodsburg. n lived there until 1813 and no doubt tome of the rifles were carried by the Kentucky and Tennessee frontiersmen under Old nickory," who shot Pukenhama veterans "sqnnrely between the eyes" at the battle of New Orleans.
