Myers - Walley


Source: Waynetown Despatch, June 17, 1904

Walley Myers, of  Crawfordsville, who was deputy sheriff under old Alex Harper, has come  to grief at last. He was arrested last week in St. Louis on the charge  of being connected with a gang of horse thieves and brought to  Crawfordsville where he was incarcerated. He was a fit companion for old  Harper, who refused us admission to the Henning hanging. There is not a  meaner villain in Montgomery County than Walley Myers and if justice is  done the trifling whelp he will either be hanged or sent to the  penitentiary for life (Newport Hoosier State) - transcribed by kbz
