The location of Tom Horn's so-called confession is on the second floor of Wyoming Home, 210 W. Lincolnway. The Bay Window room was the US Marshal's office where on January 12, 1902, Tom Horn made incriminating remarks to Joe LeFors that were used as a confession to the murder of Willie Nickell and led to Horn's conviction and hanging."
