James Andrew "Dick" Liddil (September 15, 1852 – July 13, 1901) was an American outlaw who was one of the last surviving members of the James–Younger Gang.
"[1] Liddil rode with the James Gang in October 1879 when they raided a depot in Glendale, 15 miles east of Kansas City.
[1][2] After capturing the telegraph operator, the gang signaled a train to stop, stealing the money from the safe in the express car.
[1] By some accounts, Liddil served as the lookout in September 1880 when the James Gang robbed the John Dovey Coal Mine payroll in Mercer County, Kentucky.
In November 1881, Liddil and Wood Hite, a first cousin of the James brothers, became engaged in a shootout outside Adairville, Kentucky, though neither man was shot.
[1][2] Liddil told the law what he knew about the criminal activities of the James Gang, and his capture and confession were kept secret until March 1882.
When the James gang was broken up, Liddell came East and raced horses at Brighton Beach, Clifton and Guttenberg.
