Judge Holden
Judge Holden is purportedly a historical person, a murderer who partnered with John Joel Glanton as a professional scalp-hunter in Mexico and the American South-West during the mid-19th century. To date, the only source for Holden's existence is Samuel Chamberlain's My Confession: Recollections of a Rogue, an autobiographical account of Chamberlain's life as a soldier during the Mexican–American War. He was popularized as the main antagonist of Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian (1985).read more
