[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 4347942, member: 7900"] This is a story about a painting dedicated and planned to be in the Oklahoma Capitol that represents the government's attack on Robber's Roost in Cimarron County and somewhere in the vicinity of Kenton, OK [URL='https://oksenate.gov/press-releases/painting-robbers-roost-be-dedicated']Dedication of Robber's Roost Painting[/URL] "Robber's Roost was a rock fortress with stone walls 30 inches thick that was built by a band of outlaws led by Captain William Coe in No Man's Land in the late 1860's. It had one door and instead of windows had 27 tall, narrow portholes. This region near the Black Mesa was left unclaimed in 1850 when Congress established the boundaries for Texas, Kansas and New Mexico. Therefore, Congress declared it "neutral" or "No Man's Land" and soon forgot about it. The result was a region without any kind of government or law where outlaws and thieves began congregating because of the security the area offered them."
