That's Harry "Haywire Mac" McClintock. He is kind of a legend among rustlers, gold miners and cowboys. He was mentioned in a movie that came out a while ago called
" O brother where art thou? " Did ya see it? It was very good. I personally am convinced that the movie re invented folk music, country music and good old time mountain music. Which alot of us were very happy about. With all this newer music taking over, what, with all them machines and what have you...a man could damn near lose sight of the very music that has made us what we are today. Harry McClintock took pride in his work and inspired a great many men from out of the horrible and God-awful depression that hit us all, back in the twenties and thirties. He convinced alot of men that there was this Big Rock Candy Mountain. Just a waitin' in them thar hills.
Y'all take care now...ya hear?
