Lincoln County, NM. in 1877

I've been reading a very interesting biography on William Antrim written by Michael Wallis.

He mentions four items that have a peculiar use during the period of the Old West. They are:


1) Cayenne Pepper
2) Vinegar
3) Turpentine
4) Kerosene


Who was William Antrim and what do the above listed items have in common?

This would be Billy the Kid I believe. The items listed are used to repel mosquitos!!! -Todd.
