"Baby, your brother Eddie shot me.
I turned and seen him cross the fence,
after he cracked down on me the second time."

Clue: "When Cole Younger hid out in Texas in 1868, he took a fancy to [her]... and, after seducing her, she had his illegitimate child, a baby girl she named Rosie Lee..."

I did not know this.

Since I wasn't there, I must say that "allegedly" Belle Starr's last words were:

"Baby, your brother Eddie shot me.
I turned and seen him cross the fence,
after he cracked down on me the second time."

Uncle Eph, you are right.

Sorry, but wrong answer.  These last words came from an actual "bad guy" (a Texan).  Another version of his last words follows:

"Well, I haven't got much to say. I have got to die. I see a good many enemies around me, and only a mighty few friends. I hope to God you will forgive me. I hate to die, but I have earned this by taking the lives of men who loved life as well as I do.
  If I have any friends here, I hope they will do nothing to avenge my death; if they want to avenge my death, let them pray for me. I deserve this fate. It's a debt I owe for my wild, reckless life. When it's paid, it will be all over. I have nothing more to say."

Here's another clue:  There is something "fishy" about his last name.

Still "longingly" lookin' for an answer to this one.

Don't know what I'd do without ya, Slim - always there when I need ya.  Kinda like Gabby Hayes, Tonto, an' Smiley Burnett, all rolled into one.

You are right again.  Hope you didn't fudge on that one.

Maybe that one's a bit hard.  How about this one?
