Other Officers Get Credit
Due Tom Smith in West
BY DAMON RUNYON

ONE of the greatest OF the
" Western frontier marshals
was a reticent man by the pro
sale name of Tom Smith. He is
said to have been a New York
City cop before he drifted West.
You have seen the story OF his
career as marshal in the movies
dozens of times. though prob
ably few of the scenario writers
ever heard of Tom Smith.
They hung his deeds and his
technique on more famous peace
officers. who copied TO some eH-
tent from Tom Smith.
He was marshal of Abilene
Kan. which grew from a collec-
ton Of log huts 10 the widest of
the border towns when the rail-
road got there in 1867 and IT
became the shipping point for
the herds of cattle driven north
from Texas.
1t was a regular movie set in
its heyday with the saloons and
gambling houses Just like those
they always smash 10 Smither-
Gems in the cinematic braWlS,
The cowboys would come IN
from month 10 two months on
the trail a-rootin' and a-tootin
and a-Shootin
IN AN effort 10 get a little law
i and order into the picture,
Abilene incorporated as a third
class city in 1869 and the follow
ing year created the office Of
marshal, among others. and
passed an ordinance prohibiting
the carrying of firearms within
the city limits.
The cowboys promptly pep
pered public displays of the ordi-
nance on bulletin boards with
their six-piStolS. tore down con-
struction work on a new city
Jail. shot up the town and raised
old Harry in general They had
great contempt for the law and
there was no order.
WHEN Tom Smith who had
w come from Kit Carson,
Colo. first applied for the posi-
ton Of marshal he was turned
down. 1t was said he had served
as marshal in various towns
along the Union Pacific and that
he had been mixed up in a big
rumpus at Bear River. Wyo. but
he was not a man TO discuss his
past
He was finally hired by Abb
leue after several local men had
been tried and also after HVo
fellows recommended by the
chief Of police of ST. Louis had
made a curSory examination of
conditions and fled.
Smith drank little. if any. He
carried guns. but kept them out
Of sight on his person. His chief
reliance was right hand smash
to the chm which he first intro
duced 10 a tough COW prodder
called Big Hank. who refused TO
diSarm and was quite abusive.
Smith got as close to Hank
as he could and without prolong-
ing the debate stretched his man
with one punch. This was new
stuff to the cowboys. They went
back TO thefr camps and dis
cussed the matter and charac-
ter named Wyoming Frank SAID
he did not believe j..
He went into town the next
day with his guns on and met
Smith in the street and when
Smith asked him for the shoot

inmate. She had held the position for twelve
years.
The councilmen apparently feel I've been
uncooperative by marrying Mr.. Holiday,
whom they regard as the chief sinner Of Sim
ners Row remarked blue-eyed Helen Holli-
day on receiving her notice. We'll, after June
first, too will sit in Sinners Row alongside
my husband where wifes place is naturally
and with those former members of the choir
and others who feel that deep injustices have
been done"
The sinners" as we'll as a squad of repre-
sentatives from the Council group, arrived at
the hearing of Dorothys petition to reopen
her divorce case. All were eager to testify but
Judge Cornelius j Harrington gave them no
chance.
He ruled that Dorothy's divorce was valid
since she had accepted its terms for three
years and that permission TO take David to
Milwaukee would be given provided she would
agree to visits from his father on alternate
Sundays and bring the child TO him in May
wood on the others Her SIS week alimony
was allowed to remain though the Judge saw
fit to deduct dollar and half on alternate
weeks to cover the expense of Holidays trips
to Milwaukee.
And now" began His Honor softly, as he
leaned over the bench to look Dorothy and
Bud in the face, whom do you think the most
of, yourselves or the boy"
Both answered: The boy"
Fine" said the Judge. That eliminates
any cause for having an encore Of what may
or may not go on during Sunday services in "a
church at haywood. That eliminates any rea-
son for taking up the courts time in hearing
recitals that have 20 do with sneering and
jeering' in church.
Nations today are very busily occupied in
sneering and jeering at one another-and
worse. much worse When IL is in my power
20 stop individuals from testifying unnec-
essarily against one another in this court
l shall do So"
He concluded with a CHEEKY "good-day
gentlemen" TO the opposing counsel and called
for the next case on the calendar.

and also that he occasionally squirmed in the
back row
But so would you" he added IF you had
10 listen to a choir singing off key and TO a
sermon on using your best talents in church
work-you being the fellow with a trained
tenor voice and not being able TO get the full
advantage of it, all because the pastor wanted
you out of his church the minute you were
out of his family
And he disposed of Councilman Thayers
remarks by saying: IF Brother Thayer can
see me writing and sneering from where ne
sits in the last row of the choir-loft then all
l can say is he must have pair of periscopic
binoculars. No ordinary eyes could cover that
distance and see what he says he sees"
The controversy ragged for a year and then
Bud received the first official reply to his re-
quest for renstatement-from this same
Brother 1hayer"
Dear Bud" it read Il think of you as the
prodigal son of the Scriptures My suggestion
to you is this; instead OF bringing a lawyer.
court clerk, ETC. TO the coming congregation
meeting come in a spirit of meekness and
humility and say:
i" realize that / have sinned against Hea-
ven and before you and am unworthy to sing
in the choir. Please do not hold my errors
against me for the rest of my life 1 forgive
all of you for your unkind words against me
Won't you do as much for me7 "
Nevertheless the ex-choir-maste showed
up at the meeting with his lawyer and court
clerk to take down the minutes. A represent
tative of the Illinois Church Synod was there,
too, and remarked rather testify Il wish
you folks out here would settle down and quit
your fussing and try to do something about
lifting the mortgage off your church edifice."
But otherwise nothing of note occurred:
they just told Holiday that they would act on
his petition in the future-which they failed
10 do. Instead. the Church Council struck
again. this time in the form Of letter to the
new Mrs Holiday Gliding her for her lack OF
cooperation and stating that OF June lst

10 the organst But at the same time, should
any such sad eventuality have occurred, she
might have considered it no more than the
just deserts of his alegedly irreverent be-
havor in church.
This last is described in her petition at
some length.
ION divers occasions he has sat in atten-
dance at services she said In the grabbed
language OF the law and conducted himself
in manner obnoxious by making grimaces,
sneers and otherwise conducting himself so
