    1. RE: [TNBEDFOR] Crimes against Law Officers
    2. Hall, Lisa
    3. This is interesting to me, as I have a great-grandfather who was convicted of killing two Shelbyville (or Bedford County??) policemen on October 31, 1911. There are conflicting stories as to why this happened, but our family has said that bootlegging and betrayal were the motivating factors. Marion Anderson spent over 20 years (maybe 30 years) in state penitentiary for these murders. Does anyone have any info or insight into this incident or the participants (especially Marion Anderson and family)? I understand Marion may have had a brother in Shelbyville who was a barber, but don't know his name. -----Original Message----- From: Martha Mendez [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, April 06, 2005 11:20 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [TNBEDFOR] Help With A Branch of My Family - Chambers Hi Lucy, There is a newspaper clipping on this. (My grandfather is Sam Helton <grin>. When you get ready for the rest of the story send me a private E mail). I also remember reading where Wiley sold some property right after this shooting, so it was apparent he was trying to raise some money. As to what happened in the trial I don't have a clue.

Dillard b: 05 Mar 1883 in Tennessee d: 02 > Mar > 1936 (he was Police Chief and was shot and killed by Wiley Troop) Shelbyville Gazette - March 5, 1936, page 1 POLICE CHIEF DIED FROM GUN SHOT WOUND SUNDAY Wiley Troup charged, with first degree murder, bound over to circuit court Shelbyville and Bedford County people were inexpressibly shocked and grieved on last Sunday morning to learn that S.A. Dillard, police chief, was dead from a gun shot, alledged to have been fired by the hand of Wiley Troop. The report of the shooting is as follows: Chief Dillard was killed Sunday morning at about 11 o'clock as he and patrolman J.W. Drake were bringing two prisoners to the city after arresting them on Sims road, 2 1/2 miles from town. In the auto with Chief Dillard were Patrolman Drake and two prisoners, Sam Helton and Miss Hazel Lee Delffs. Chief Dillard and patrolman Drake, while inside the city limits, recongized a passing auto occupied by Helton and Misses Delffs as a liquor car and gave chase, Patrolman Drake reported. The chase continued outside the city limits and ended on Sims road when Patrolman Drake shot down two tires on the liquor car. Two and one half gallons of whiskey were found in the car. The car was owned by Troop, Patrolman Drake reported. Chief Dillard and Patrolman Drake were putting Helton and Miss Delffs into the police car when another car arrived at the arrest sceen, occupied by Troop and two other men. The two officers, with Helton and Miss Delffs as prisoners, had driven several hundred feet back toward the city when Troop fired at their car three times with a 25 - 20 calibre rifle, Patrolman Drake reported. One of the bullets entered the rear of the car and went into Chief Dillard head behind his right ear. He died instantly, Drake said. The Chief was sitting on the right and of the rear seat with the two prisoners and Drake was driving at the time. A splinter of the bullet hit Drake on the neck, but he was not badly injured. "The chief died instantly, Drake said." "As soon as Troop shot I stoped the car and lay down across the hood of the car waiting for him to come down the road, with my gun ready, but he cut across a field and went another way." Troop was arrested and hour and a half later by Patrolman Drake and Patrolman A. Reynolds while he was in route to the county jail to surrender. He had telephoned Sheriff T.E. Gant that he was on his way there to surrender, it was reported. Troop was held without bond on a charge of murder. No inquest was ordered. Helton and Miss Delff were charged with felonious transportation of whiskey. The woman has been released under bond. Bearden and Trolinger were arrested on charges of aiding and abetting, first degree murder, and released under bond. Dillard has been chief of Shelbyville police since last October. He had formerly been a carpenter. He was a member of the Christian Church here. Survivors include his wife and a son. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, April 06, 2005 2:49 PM Subject: [TNBEDFOR] Help With A Branch of My Family - Chambers > Hi Everyone: > > My father's words are echoing in my ears "if you don't publish your data > ... > it is not worth the paper it is written on."

    3. Hi Lisa, This was probably reported in the Nashville Tennessean. If you get a change to go to Tennessee State Library and Archives. I find a LOT of information that way. I also take the index to the death records and then look up the obit. Since they give the counties it makes it SO MUCH easier. Nashville Tennessean. Ja 19 1920 - present. d.
