Information from: www.bestplaces.net History Ellsworthis a city in and thecounty seatofEllsworth County,Kansas. Known as a cow town in the 1870s, when the Kansas Pacific Railroad operated a stockyard here for shipping cattle to eastern markets, today it serves as the trading center of the rural county. Once called The Wickedest Cattletown in Kansas, the city is named for Fort Ellsworth, which was built in 1864. Due to speculation on imminent railroad construction, the population of Ellsworth boomed to over two thousand by the time it was incorporated in 1867. It has since been said, Abilene, the first, Dodge City, the last, but Ellsworth the wickedest. Ellsworth was a bustling cattle town for a time during the late 1860s, when theKansas Pacific Railroad had a stop and stockyards there. Cattle were driven up from Texas to this point and then shipped to major markets. Often cowboys had the run of the town. In 1875 Kansas Pacific closed its cattle pens, moving to another location. The cattle trade dwindled to almost nothing by the mid-1880s. During the late 1860s into the 1870s, Ellsworth was known for being one of the wickedest cattle towns, the scene of numerous killings following shootouts between drunkencowboys. The town sported numeroussaloons,brothelsand gambling halls, withprostitutionbeing rampant.[6]Wild Bill Hickokran for Ellsworth CountySheriff in 1868 but was defeated by veteran Union Army soldier E. W. Kingsbury. Kingsbury was an effective lawman, but relied on local marshals to patrol the town, as he also had to police the county. Violence in Ellsworth was commonplace among the cowboys and people associated with them.[7] Ellsworth marshal Will Semans was shot and killed on September 26, 1869, while attempting to disarm a rowdy man in a dance hall. Fora time during this period, two small-time outlawsknown only as Craig and Johnson began bullying people around the community, often committingarmed robbery. After Semans' murder, they operated openly. Before long, citizens formed a vigilance squad and captured both men,hangingthem in a lynching near theSmoky Hill River. Chauncey Whitney,[9] a deputy to Kingsbury, took over following Sheriff Kingsbury's departure. Whitney quickly gained a reputation as being both tough and respectable and was well liked. The scale of business is shown by construction of the Drovers Cottage in 1872. It could accommodate 175 guests, and stable 50 carriages and 100 horses. LawmanWyatt Earpclaimed to have served in Ellsworth for a short time. He also later claimed to have arrestedgunmanBen Thompsonthere. But Thompson was arrested by Deputy Ed Hogue after his brotherBilly Thompson accidentally shot and killed Ellsworth County Sheriff Chauncey Whitney in 1873, Billy Thompson fled, fearing that he would be lynched for the death of the popular sheriff. Thompson was eventually captured and put on trial butwasacquittedin the shooting. Sheriff Whitney, a friend to both Thompsons, had told bystanders before his death that the shooting was an accident. By the late 1870s the crime rate had dropped dramatically, as fewer cowboys came through after Kansas Pacific closed its stockyard here. Cattle drives were directed to other market cities, such asDodge City. Ellsworth suffered economically.
