DEATH:
          A report on the death of Daniel Epley. The BOLIVAR WEEKLY COURIER: December 22, 1860, page 2 column 1:  "On the 13th inst. a difficulty occurred between O. F. Hall and Wm. Thompson at Black Oak Point, in which the latter struck the former which caused him to procure a warrant, and Mr. Daniel Epley was deputized to arrest him, and whilst performing this duty, Thompson stabbed him with a knife eighteen inches long which resulted in his death on the following morning.  Thompson is now in custody and undoubtedly will be dealt with by law as he justly deserves, and his fate cannot be too severe, for he has robbed the life of one of our oldest and most respectable citizens.   The life that he has so brutally destroyed is worth more than all the  vagrant striplings in the universe." Given to me by John W. Epley;  P.O. Box 212 807 Thayer Street, Plymouth, Indiana  46563. Descendent of Peter Epley.
