Bose Ikard
Bose Ikard (ca. 1840s–1929) was an African American cowboy who participated in the pioneering cattle drives on what became known as the Goodnight–Loving Trail, after the American Civil War and through 1869. Aspects of his life inspired the fictional character Joshua Deets, the African-American cowboy in Larry McMurtry's novel Lonesome Dove. == Life and career == Bose Ikard was born into slavery around 1847 or in 1843〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://web.weatherfordisd.com/ikard/bose_ikard%20history.htm )〕 in Summerville, Noxubee County, Mississippi.〔 He lived with his master's family prior to the Civil War, becoming a ranch hand and cowboy as he grew up in Texas after the Ikards moved from Mississippi to Parker County, Texas. On the post-war cattle drives, Ikard served as a tracker, a cowboy and as Charles Goodnight's de facto banker, often carrying thousands of dollars in cash until the money could be deposited.〔Wagner, page 41〕 After his last cattle drive in 1869, Ikard settled in Parker County, becoming a farmer and raising a family with his wife Angeline.〔Shackleford, page 137〕
