This Day

On this in 1901 Harvey Logan got into a fight in a pool hall in Knoxville, TN.  He pistol whipped his opponent and shot three policemen and was wounded himself before leaving town.  He got thirty miles before being capturded by more cops and some hounds.  Also on this day in 1883 – the gambler Newt Boyce cut two men with a knife in a saloon fight in Caldwell, Kansas.  Marshal Henry Brown and Ben Wheeler arrested him for it and threw him in jail.
