Makes me think of Cassius Clay, guy from the late 1800s who defended his home at the age of 89 with a pistol and a knife. And had a home defense cannon just because.

Once a sheriff was sent to arrest clay in his 80s with 5 deputies.

Sheriff returned to judge and said he couldn't complete the arrest and wouldn't try again without 100 armed national guardsman.
