�JAMES (JIMMY) SPENCER BAKER&#13;
James Spencer Baker l known to most Ignacio people as J ·i mmy Baker,&#13;
was born on August 12, 1~99, the son of James Baker and Lucy Spencer&#13;
Baker.&#13;
1&#13;
• 1 was born in a log house at Caracas.&#13;
I think the house is still ·&#13;
there. My father built a good barn and corral. We had chickens and&#13;
milk goats and hogs and range cattle and riding horses and draft horses.&#13;
The draft horses were 11 Perchn (Percherons) and weighed 1500 to 2000 lbs.&#13;
They could really plow and pull the wagons. Hy father raised wheat and&#13;
hay for the animals and potatoes and beans for the family. 11&#13;
When Jimmy I s mother died j_n June of 1 907, J·immy and his father and&#13;
his sister Grace and his brothers Julian and Frank and Cassey faced a&#13;
l onelier world~ It was still two years until J·immy 1 s father took him to'&#13;
t he Indian School at Ignacio . During summer starting at the age of 12&#13;
Jimmy was sent to the hills to herd the cattle.&#13;
"I rode my horse up to the Vega every week to count the cows. Some of&#13;
them would be way up in the brush. \fnen we went up some of the steep&#13;
h:i.lls I would get off the hor se and grab a hold of his tail and he would&#13;
pull me right up. The first year I went up I was afraid a lion or a bear&#13;
or a bobcat would get me, but I never had any trouble. 11&#13;
One of these trips Jim.my will never forget. He was late g_etting&#13;
started back and then it started to rain and how it.rained!&#13;
11&#13;
Before I got out of the Vega ·, it started to rain. By the time I&#13;
got to the Di pping Vat on Cat Creek my horse and I were both soaked and&#13;
it· was so dark we cot~ldn I t see nothing except · when those big lighten~rtgs&#13;
came down . I didn't get home until 1 : 00 or 2 :00 o'clock. n&#13;
In the days when Jimmy was a boy, one of the best ways and certainly&#13;
one of the most exciting 1-rays to obtain new weal th and val ua b1 e property -,&#13;
was to hunt the wild horses in the hills above Caracas. Jimmy and his&#13;
father and brothers sometimes were gone several days patiently tracking,&#13;
listening, stalking and then off on a wild chase t o rope a few or, if&#13;
possible, to drive a herd into a box canyon.&#13;
11&#13;
0ur friends Tito and To_ny and Narc is so Gomez sometimes went with us•&#13;
Then we all got together to brand the horses and break them . Our brand&#13;
was a curved arrow with a split tail like this~&#13;
&#13;
1&#13;
&#13;
11&#13;
&#13;
In the winter of 1915 we went out one morning and all our horses&#13;
were gone . ·we told the marshall, Porfirio Chavez. There was deep snow&#13;
and he tracked the men all the way to Lumberton and brought our horses&#13;
back and put the men in jail in Pagosa. They turned out to be so~e of&#13;
our neighbors. After the trial, they were put in the pen."&#13;
Jimmy lived at Caracas until 1916, then he moved over toward Ignacio .&#13;
In 1918. he was drafted and sent to Brwonsville, Texas, then to Laredo, then&#13;
to San Antonio and finally to Ft. Riley in Kansas. Ji!llIIlY was in Company&#13;
A, 9th Engineers and was trained to be a blacksmith; During the First&#13;
World War the army had some motorized vehicles, bu:t it also retained&#13;
many horses and mules and wagons. Therefore, blacksmiths were needed to&#13;
shoe the horses and to keep the wagon wheels in repair. Jimmy would have&#13;
been sent to France soon, but, as he explains, 11 Woodrow Wilson and&#13;
Ka~.ser v.filhelm signed the peace."&#13;
When Jil'Il.I:'.ly was mustered out of the army in 1921, he decided he wanted&#13;
to see the country, so for a while he rode. the rails.&#13;
"I went all over the country as far as Bismark/, North Dakota, but&#13;
I never got caught because I moved like the coyote. 1&#13;
•&#13;
&#13;
�Then J-immy got a job on this D. &amp; .R. G. W. Railroad on the line beti,xe-::m&#13;
Denver and Steamboat Springs as a mambe1· of the Extra Gang. Jiru::,iy: s CI'E.i'\d&#13;
spent a lot of time on the lines around. 1-Ioff at Tunnel 13,000 feet up c::-1&#13;
the continental divide 11est of Denve:r-. Jimmy enjoyed. the changeable '..:eatb.121•&#13;
and the beautiful su~rises and sunsets visible from the divide. Ji~•~&#13;
rPmembers one mo1•ning when 11 the sun came up pale, so pa.le over the lalrn.&#13;
(Yankee Doodle Lake) It looked like the moon.n&#13;
After- working a while on the railroad, j-imny went down to Denver&#13;
and got a job with the Public Service Company till 1926. The next year&#13;
Jimmy's father died and Jim1:.1y came back to Ignacio to stay . Re married&#13;
Bessie Box.They lived on his place about a mile east of Ignacio where&#13;
he raised cattle and hogs and chickens.&#13;
'.th:Ls month Jim.my celebrate6 his 76th birthday. He has bee11 alone for·&#13;
a long tirae. Of course, he gets lonely so:ne times 1 but he is st.i1l strcnr:&#13;
&#13;
and healthy, likes to walk a lot for exercise, and has a wonderful sense&#13;
&#13;
of l:m1:10:r.&#13;
&#13;
We. wish him many :1ore years of good heal th and good tirr:es.&#13;
