Denver (CO) Post, April 14, 1901, p. 1. WOULD KILL HIS BROTHER A Five-Cent Piece Almost Responsible for a Murder Corydon, Indiana, April 13-For five cents, Henry Booker tried to kill his brother, William, mayor of Corydon, with a shotgun, and then a mob chased Henry out of town. William Booker was secured in the county jail when the citizens started a manhunt for the would-be murderer. Henry Booker, who lives in New Albany, came to Corydon to see his brother about a small debt. The visitor called at the mayor's house and was ushered in. The argument hinged on a little matter of five cents. Suddenly, the mayor emerged from his own house running. His brother, Henry, followed after carrying a shotgun. "I'll get you," shouted Henry as they swung into the street with William Booker headed for the jail. It was two squares to the jail, but the mayor beat his brother to it by half a block. The citizens, enraged at the attack upon the mayor, began to gather. A crowd soon formed, some men bringing guns. The county line is about a mile from the jail. In the second chase, Henry Booker was in the lead, the sheriff and angry citizens pursuing. Again the front man won. Henry was over the line before the others could get in shotgun range. Then his brother William came out of the jail.
