Calamity outlived Hickock by decades and was buried in a grave next to his in the cemetery high above the town. (They weren't lovers, just friends.) The cemetery has a host of colorful characters in residence in addition to Bill and Calamity. In design, it reminded me of Pere Lachaise in Paris - which has Jim Morrison, Chopin's heart, Abelard and Heloise, and every French literary figure you could name.
