Richard “Little Dick” West (December 31, 1860 – April 13, 1898) was an outlaw of the Old West and a member of Bill Doolin’s gang. After West left the Doolin Gang, he joined with the Jennings Gang, which failed miserably. A trio of U.S. Marshals, called “The Three Guardsmen,” had, throughout the 1890s, decided to eliminate all the members of the Doolin Gang. They were pretty successful, with most being killed in encounters in Oklahoma. In April 1898, Deputy Marshal Madsen finally tracked West to Guthrie, Oklahoma, where a shootout ensued, during which West was killed. He is buried there in the Summit View Cemetery.
