Tuesday, April 17, 1900. Flat Nose Curry killed.

George "Flat Nose" Curry was killed by Sheriff Jessie M. Tyler while rustling cattle in Grand County, Utah.  Curry was a member of the Wild Bunch (Hole in the Wall Gang).


Born to John and Nancy Ann (Macdonald) Currie in Prince Edward Island, Curry took up rustling as a young man while living in Nebraska.  Harvey "Kid Curry" Logan avenged the death by killing Sheriff Tyler some time thereafter, after which he returned to the Hole in the Wall.

The chiefs of Tutuila approved cession of the island to the United States.
