KILLS HIMSELF IN BARN: Terror Stricken When He Learned a Posse of 30 Men Was Trailing Him With Bloodhounds, Fugitive Turned Revolver on Himself - Springfield, Mo., March 9. - (Special). Terror stricken when he learned a posse of 30 men were trailing him with bloodhounds, Robert Hemphill, 25 years old, turned upon himself the revolver with which he eight hours previously had wounded D. W. Waymire, 60 years old, city marshal of Crane, Mo., and ended his life as he cowered in a barn near Marionville early last night. Hemphill shot the marshal, inflicting a wound that may prove fatal, when Waymire attempted to arrest him and Frank Sisco, 16, Ponca City, Ok. The marshal had learned they were wanted in Baxter Springs, Kas., presumably on a motor car theft charge. Hemphill and Sisco both fled after the shooting, but Sisco returned a short time later and gave himself up to authorities in Crane. He said he had ridden to Crane from Oklahoma in a motor car with Hemphill. Hemphill made his way on foot to the farm of Robert Lusk, near Marionville, twenty miles west of Springfield. While he was conversing with Mr. Lusk, the telephone, on a multi-party country line, rang. Hemphill heard the conversation and from it could tell he was pursued. - The Springfield Leader (Springfield, Missouri) Tuesday, March 8, 1927, page 1 - CITY MARSHAL OF CRANE, MO NEAR DEATH FOLLOWING DUEL: D.

Posses now are scouring the country near Crane for Smith, who fled in a car immediately after the shooting. City Marshal Waymire, accompanied by his deputy, William Miller, went to the home of Harrison Hemphill, two and one-half miles west of Crane this morning in search of Smith and E. R. Sisco. They carried a warrant from Baxter Springs, Kansas, charging the pair with the theft of an automobile. As the officers drove up to the Hemphill home they found Smith and Sisco in front of the place fixing a tire. Getting out of the car, Marshal Waymire advanced and told them that he had "come after them." Smith drew his revolver and immediately began shooting and Waymire fell, the bullet striking him in the abdomen and passing out of his hip. Waymire fired several shots at Smith, but none struck him. Deputy Miller immediately ran to the fallen marshal's assistance and brought him to Crane at once. Sisco came to Crane at 12 o'clock and surrendered to authorities. He denied any part in the shootings. He also said he knew nothing of the theft of any car at Baxter Springs, but was hired by Hemphill to drive him from Barnsdall, Okla. to his home near Crane. - Grave #522. | Death Certificate Donna Cooper Death Certificate Photo Stefanie Forester King Funeral Home Jay Trace News Items Linda Skelton Corbin |
