Blackburn was implicated in 3 holdups of the Cheyenne-Deadwood coaches. A wanted poster was printed and circulated in Nov, 1877 and a reward of $1,000.00 for an arrest and $200.00 for a body was offered by Cheyenne-Black Hills Stage Co for Federal Highway robbery, setting a prisoner free, grand larceny, assault with intent to kill, murder. Some believed that Calamity Jane took part in some of these robberies.
