While posting obituaries, I came across the following which might be interest to some. I have no dates; if anyone knows, please post to the list. This came from either the Glasgow (likely Weekly) Times or the Glasgow Republican. "Glasgow Man Witness To Monroe Slaying Late Yesterday. W. E. HARLIN held on Charges of Shooting Orville Peden Near Mt Hermon. Peden Died at T-ville. "Ralph ARNOLD, local manager of the D T BOHON store here, was the only witness to a shooting yesterday afternoon about five o'clock near Mt. Hermon, twenty miles East of Glasgow, that cost the life of Orville T. Peden, 60 year old farmer. He was shot by WIll E. hARLIN, 50 year old farmer, who lives on the place adjoining that of PEDEN and former partner of F D JORDAN in the owner- ship of the Gulf Refining Company agency at Glasgow. "The eye witness stated that he had been to the HARLIN place earlier in the afternoon and inquired the route to take to the PEDEN place to deliver the radio and was told to go around the back way. Arnold said that he went around the back way and found the road impassable. He said that PEDEN told him that it would be alright to go back and go thru HARLIN's place if he was with him. They went back and had gone through one gate and PEDEN got out to open another one, he started the open the gate and HARLIN who had arrived there pushed it closed,. PEDEN then made another attempt to open the gate and HARLIN drew a .38 calibre pistol from his right hip overalls pocket and fired at PEDEN's head, the bullet struck PEDEN on the left side of the head. "Hearing the shot Clarence ALBANY came to the scene and assisted ARNOLD to carry the wounded man to the HARLIN home. ARNOLD then went thru the gate to the PEDEN home and returned, and with ALBANY placed the wounded man in the car and took him to Tompkinsville, a distance of nine miles for medical treatment. He died this morning at Tompkinsville. "Mr Arnold said this morning that there was "absolutely no occasion for the shooting." "It is said that PEDEN had sued HARLIN in the Monroe courts and had been granted permission by the courts to pass through HARLIN's farm to get to his place. "HARLIN was arrested last night by Sheriff Fred EVANS of Monroe County and remained in custody of the officers. "Mr PEDEN is survived by his wife and several children and his father. "Burial and funeral arrangements have not been announced."
