II Smith, who WAS pursued by posse OF
villagers. When coincrcd. he made re-
sistance and was flied with bullets, caus.
ing his death. One of the pursucrs also
was shot
Farmer Clapsnddle lived "a mile south of
the village in small cottage with his
wife, daughter ana grandchild ~
years old, the son of the murderer. Smith
was a dissoluse character, who spent what
money he could get for whisky lie had
married the eldest daughter of Clapsaddlo,
and she had separated from him ON ac-
count Of his dissipation. and Smith had
always blamed his father-in-law for the
estrangement.
Smith went into the Clapsaddle home.
stead, where the old man sat reading his
paper, and without warning OF provoca-
tiOn drew a revolver and shot Clapsaddle
through the head. Before an alarm could
DO given hy the affrighted women of the
household the assassin had made his es-
cape and was well away
Mr. Clapsaddle died soon after the ar
rival of "a doctor, never regaining con
sciousnncss. Almost Immediately the It'd
ings Of the cowardly crime spread among
the tOwnsUcople, and posse was formed
with deputy sheriff at It's head, TO hunt
down the inurd@"r. The posse was COM
posed Of 90 reputable men and neighbors
Of the murdered man. They were various
ly armed, with rifles, shotguns and small
arms. They soon struck the trail and made
flank movement 10 cut Off his retreat
When Smith saw the posse in pursuit, he
took bee line for the house of one Brown,
and as he entered the door he turned, and.
bandishing tho revolver, cried, "The first
man who follows me in here ! win shoot %
Undauntod, the posse closed in around
the house, when Brown, coming TO the
door, assured them that no was not in
league with the murderer, and that Smith
was in hiding in one Of the closets. There
upon Elmer ClApsaddle, relative Of the
murdered man, cried to smith TO come
out and surrender.
Smith, thrusting his arm out Of the
window, responded with a bullet, which
entered Clapsaddles wrist. This aroused
the latent rage Of the crowd. and they
poured the contents of their guns through
the walls of the house at short range into
the spot where Smith was evidently stand
ing
There was a sound as Of "a falling body
and groan, which showed the shots had
taken effect, and when an examination
was made Smith was found to be fatally
wounded, bleeding from "A dozen wounds,
where bullets and shot had riddled him.
He was dragged from his hiding place
