The killing of 0. r. Webster, deputy United States marshal,

Webster was a good officer. He was the kind Of officer that

Will Smiddy was known TO be liberal with his il.gaincd
money. He could afford to be generous. He merely helped the
children OF the families that men Of his kind made destitute. He
was regarded by some as the successor to "the king OF the boot
leggers" that so many men of prominence in Memphis have
endeavored to have pardoned, and seemed to enjoy a special i'm.
munity from police interference which in the end, as it proved,
was the worst thing that could have been done for him. No doubt
the big pistol he carried as he brushed shoulders with the police
had something to do with the extraordinary consideration he
received at their hands.
