Belladonna is a plant. The leaf and root are used to make medicine. The name âbelladonnaâ means âbeautiful lady,â and was chosen because of a risky practice in Italy. The belladonna berry juice was used historically in Italy to enlarge the pupils of women, giving them a striking appearance.
Brushy Bill Roberts (? â December 27, 1950; claimed date of birth December 31, 1859) a.k.a. William Henry Roberts [1], Ollie Partridge William Roberts, Ollie P. Roberts or Ollie L. Roberts, attracted attention by claiming to be the western outlaw William H. Bonney, also known as Billy the Kid.
The folklore is that a guy named Brushy Bill was really Billy the Kid. He went by the name of William Henry Roberts and he died in Hico, TX in 1950, though this account of the Billy the Kid conspiracy theory says Brushy Bill went by Ollie P. âBillâ Roberts even though the grave marker says William Henry Roberts.
