Providence, Ky., Feb 4, 1896
William M. Smiley, town marshal, was shot here tonight while attempting to
arrest James and Jordan Hughes, farmers of near town, for drunkenness.
James, who it is thought fired the fatal shot made his escape in the
darkness, but Jordan is in custody. A posse is in pursuit and it is thought
that James will be captured before morning. Great excitement prevailed.
Mr. Smiley had been on the duty only two weeks and was a vigilant and
fearless officer. He leaves a wife and three children.
