OLD MEMORIES RETURN AT PASSING OF ANNIE
Death of Most Famous Woman Rifle Shot Brings Back Days of Buffalo Bill
It reports that she had retired from the show world years earlier, that she was hurt in an automobile accident in Florida in November, 1922, that she never fully recovered and had been an invalid for months, and that her death is believed to have been indirectly due to the accident.
On the cause of death the item offers no finding: it says that she never fully recovered from the injuries of the automobile accident and that it is believed her death indirectly was due to that accident.
The death of Annie Oakley, the rifle shot of the Wild West show world.
a cow pony bearing a slip of a girl in buckskin dress waving a rifle above her head.
The skill with which she could shoot dimes out of attendants' hands, glass balls out of the air and bulls-eyes out of unsteady targets as she galloped her pony about the tent, gave the youth of the land many a thrill and more than one gulp.
She was the first and greatest of the Wild West markswomen.
