-{Dutch van der Linde}-
.. . . 
|
Dutch was born somewhere near Philadelphia in 1855 to an English woman named Greta and a Dutch father. His father fought for the Union in the American Civil War and died in the Battle of Gettysburg; because of his father's death, Van der Linde seems to have developed a grudge against Southerners. He left his home at 15 years old because he was disobedient and rarely got along with his mother, who died in 1881 and was buried in Blackwater, although only finding out several years later from an uncle of his. Van der Linde values freedom and liberties above all else and dreams of living an independent existence. To attain these desires, Dutch begins to resort to a life of crime. In the early days of his criminal life, Van der Linde had a loose partnership with Colm O'Driscoll, a fellow infamous outlaw and the leader of his own gang. Around the mid-1870s, Dutch met and befriended Hosea Matthews, a con artist who tried to rob Dutch who likewise tried to do the same to Hosea. Dutch and Hosea decided to partner up and later formed their own gang. Notable members that join the gang at various times include Arthur Morgan, Micah Bell, John Marston, Abigail Roberts, Bill Williamson, and Javier Escuella. At some point later, Dutch and Colm became bitter enemies after he killed Colm's brother and Colm killed Dutch's lover Annabelle in retaliation, sparking a long blood feud between both gangs. At this time, Dutch is an altruistic and idealistic rogue, believing the gang could make a difference in the world. He fashioned himself into something of a Robin Hood-like figure, taking money from the rich and wealthy who had plenty of it, and giving it to the poor and destitute who needed it. He sees himself as a symbol of the Wild West in its romanticized form, and a humanitarian champion of the people, opposing government control, supporting individual liberty and punishing general human cruelty and selfishness. His romantic image and charisma inspires his gang to believe in his anarchistic vision of a "savage utopia", and it is in the name of Dutch and his cause that they committed many violent crimes such as murder and robbery. By 1899, Dutch reluctantly starts to realize that the way of life he held so dear is quickly becoming an unrealistic proposition and that the days of the Wild West are coming to an end. |
