Tyler ***Barbour-Hagan The writ of habeas corpus sued out by Jno. R. T. Barbour came up before Judge Daniel last Saturday, but on account of the absence of witnesses for the commonwealth, the case was continued till Wednesday. When the case was called Wednesday morning, the commonwealth still endeavored to postpone the trial, this time on the pleas that the decision of the Court of Appeals might render this trial useless. The authorities of Jefferson County some time since applied to the appellate Court for a writ of prohibition to prevent the case being tried here. This decision in expected next week. Judge Daniel overruled the motion for a continuance and ordered to trial to proceed. The Commonwealth was represented by Aaron Kohn, Robt. J. Hagan, J. F. Combs, and J. R. Zimmerman. Barbour's attorneys were Judge Wm. Carroll, Chas. Carroll, F. P. Straus, Ben Chapeze and H. H. Glenn. The first witness was Jno. R. T. The Bullitt Pioneer, 1901-1909 Extracted from microfilm by Edith Blissett Barbour, who in a cool and collected manner gave a detailed account of the affair. ...... After telling about the trip out on the train with Geo. James and his appointment with Roadmaster Brumley, he continued. "As I started to shake hands with Mr. Brumley and, looking over his shoulder, I saw F. J. Hagan approaching. I did not know before that that he was in the county, neither did I know he was on the train. His face was red and his eyes a ....... his right hand reached into his right hand coat pocket. I struck at him with a newspaper I held in my left and and with my right hand, I reached back for my pistol. I believed he was going to fire on me and so shot at him. He retreated, still trying to draw a pistol, as I believed, and I continued to fire until he fell on a pile of stones. I ordered him to take his hand out of his pocket or I would blow his head off, and he withdrew the hand. Just then, someone struck me with a stone from behind. Turning, I saw Mr. Sam Casseday advancing with two stones. I ordered him to drop them, or I would shoot him. He dropped them, saying, "You have already shop an unarmed man." "No, I have not", I replied, adding "and he won't deny it". The other witnesses for the defendant were Captain Geo. James, Mrs. Roger White, Mrs. Richard Lewis, W. C. Kelley and T. M. Hall. Captain James, Mrs. White and Mrs. Lewis corroborated Barbour in every substantial detail, except as to which pocket Hagan put his right hand into, his coat pocket or his hip pocket. At the close of this evidence, the Commonwealth moved that the writ be dismissed, but Judge Daniel again overruled their motion and said he would hear their evidence. Their first witness was Brainard Platt, a reporter for the Courier Journal, who testified that immediately after the shooting, Barbour told him Hagan was reaching for his hip pocket. Page 44 The next witness, Robert Hatzell said he saw the whole affair from the rear end of the train, but his testimony was more or less confused, and threw little light on the matter. Mr. E. C. Bohne was then introduced and testified in according with his statement heretofore published in these columns. The main portion of his testimony was that he saw Hagan on the train with his coat off, and that he had no pistol. He did not see any of the shooting till after the first shot. Samuel Casseday saw Hagan take his coat off on the train, was the first to reach him after the shooting, undressed him and found no pistol. Did not see the first shot, but that Hagan had a suit case in right hand all the time, till he dropped it at the third shot. Barrett Gibson says he saw Barbour enter the smoker before the train started. He went to the jail, where Barbour tried to convince ... C. L. Croan rode out on the train with Hagan and said he was not armed. He denied other facts reported in the Courier Journal as coming from him. Wm. Troutwine never saw Barbour enter the smoker, but saw him pass on the platform and look in the window. Ferd Bohne heard a commotion and turned in time to see the first shot fired and that Hagan was turning at the time. There is bad feeling between the witness and Barbour. Josh K. Brooks says that immediately after the affray, Mrs. White told him she saw it all; that Hagan was the aggressor and that both men were shooting. Mrs. Joe Jeffries says Mrs. White told her she saw Hagan get off the train and make for Barbour, that Hagan was the aggressor and that both men were shooting.
