Individual Details

Pat Garrett�s name still generated controversy three quarters of a century after his murder. A December 26, 1982, story in the Huntsville Item (Huntsville, Texas, daily newspaper) said Jarvis Garrett, 77, son of Pat Garrett, filed a lawsuit against Farah Manufacturing over the patented label that the clothing firm used to show a mustachioed cowboy in his father's likeness stitched within a lawman's star. From his home in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Garrett said, "If anyone should profit from using my father's name, it should be me." The article also said that Jarvis recently sold the Colt 44-caliber six-shooter that Pat Garrett used Billy the Kid to an Austin, Texas, collector for an undisclosed price. Presumably, this was the same weapon which Garrett gave to Tom Powers in El Paso. In some way, it found its way back into the hands of the Garrett family.
