Ballew. known for years as one OF the
mastest and one Of the most fearless
one-gun men of the Southwest was
borne home tonight In an airplane the
victim of man who beat him to The
draw.
Ballew, former deputy sheriff Here,
the notches on whose gun bore tgsii-
mony that he had killed at least eight
men and had been the victim Of coRrit-
less other gun fights, was reputed Tor
his quickness on the draw In the early
days of outlawry In the Southwest.
Today j. w Mccormick, former Texas
ranger, and now chief of police at
Wichita Falls, Texas, drew and fired
first
Bud took IN too much territory to-
day and for once was too slow on the
draw" was the opinion expressed by
many here tonight.
Ballew's prowess with a six shooter
as reputed in this section as second
only to that Of his chief, former
Sheriff Buck Garrett, under whom
Ballew served as deputy ten years,
until Garrett was oustoS from office
several months ago. He was feared
among the outlaws of the oil fields
and cattle country in the early days
when this section of the state was
headquarters for notorious outlaws.
Ballew was afraid of only one man
aid that as his chief. Buck Garrett.
When Bud went on rampage here
and in surrounding towns it was US
ually Buck Garrett that took away his
guns.
About two weeks ago while Ballew
was stiI 1lmping about he shot up two
towns near here in daylight.
During the trial of Clara Smith Ha-
mon here for the killing Of Jake L.
Hamon, republican national commits
teeman from Oklahoma. Bud was APP
pointed by Garrett as the personal

Bud shot holes in the ceiling of the

present.
