Does anyone have a relative that was attending that school and after an altercation in town (a possible murder) ran away to parts unknown (Texas)? We have no idea of the family name - a sister named Mary Ellen.... Has anyone heard or read anything about a gentleman being killed that was so large they had to build a special casket for him. That gentleman's killer would not have been aprehended. Can anyone help me?
