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, 12 kilometres (7.5 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.[7] Cassidy, Sundance, and Place bought a 5,000 hectares (12,000 acres) 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.[8]
