battle with revenue officers.
which resulted in the death of
fossenen John Sloane and
Marion Ramey in the noun

The defendants are Dave
John. Sol, Hunt and Harlan
Hall and Tom Riddle. Dave
Hall aud Tom Riddle already
have been tried in the State
courts at Clintwood and sen
fenced to eighteen years in the
penitentiary.
Deputy United States Mar
shall }. Nj. Potter and a posse
had gone into the mountains on
the western border of Dicken-
son county with warrant for
one of the Halls for violating
the internal revenue laws. The
posse was ambushed, two men
Killed and Potter wounded.
Later some of the Halls we're
arrested and taken to Kentucky
when the question arose as TO
whether the shooting occurred
on the Virginia or Kentucky
side of the line. Later the de-
PENDANTS were turned over to
the Virginia authorities and ar.
ralgncd at StAunton. The case
was transferred To Big Stone
Gap because Of its nearness to
the scene Of the tragedy.
