Butch Cassidy
File:Ranchobutchcassidycholila.JPG
The American outlaw Butch Cassidy, his partner, the Sundance Kid, and Sundance's girl friend Etta Place bought a ranch near Cholila in 1901 and lived there until about 1905. Their cabin, {{convert|12|km|mi}} north of the village, was visited by travel author Bruce Chatwin in the 1970s and was in a dilapidated state. In 2007, the cabin was partially restored."Butch Cassidy's Cabin", https://www.roughguides.com/destinations/south-america/argentina/lake-district/cholila-around/butch-cassidys-cabin/, accessed 24 Jan 2018 Cassidy, Sundance, and Place bought a {{convert|5,000|ha|acre}} ranch near Cholila and raised sheep, cattle, and horses. They were apparently forced to sell the ranch and flee because Pinkerton detectives discovered their location. They were tipped off by a local sheriff that Pinkerton agents were coming for them."Butch Cassidy, Sundance Kid found a haven in Argentina" (Jan 27, 1898),Christian Science Monitor, https://www.csmonitor.com/1998/0127/012798.intl.intl.2.html, accessed 24 Jan 2018
