For a decade or so, Marsh and Cope's mutual dislike primarily took the form of quiet sniping, but in 1877 it erupted into grandiose [-4-].

柯普生于一个特权家庭--他的父亲是费城一位有钱的商人--比马什更富有冒险精神,1876年夏天,在蒙大拿州,当乔治•阿姆斯特朗•卡斯特和他的部队在小比格角被消灭的时候,柯普还在附近找骨头。有人提醒他,这时候来印第安人领地取宝,很可能是很不明智的。他想了片刻,决定继续往下干。他的收获太大了。有一次,他遇上了几个疑心重重的克劳族印第安人,但他不停地取下和装上他的假牙,赢得了他们的信任。   有10年左右的时间,马什和柯普之间的敌对关系主要以暗斗的形式出现,但到了1877年,暗斗突然变成了大规模的冲突。那年,一位名叫阿瑟•莱克斯的科罗拉多州小学老师和他的一位朋友出门徒步旅行,在莫里森附近发现了几根骨头。莱克斯认为那些骨头属于一条"巨蜥";他想得很周到,把一些样品寄给了马什和柯普两个人。柯普很高兴,给莱克斯寄了100美元作为报酬,吩咐他不要把他的发现告诉任何人,尤其不要告诉马什。莱克斯不大明白,便请马什把骨头转交给柯普。马什这么做了,但遭到了一番他永生难忘的羞辱。
