summons ordering him to appear at the September Term of the Superior
Court, see Peay v. Martin (1827);
Deputy Sheriff of Pulaski County in see Crittenden
v. Woodruff (1827);
A conflict between John T. Garrett and Chester Ashley
arose during the tumultuous period of 1827 and 1828. Garrett harbored
animosity toward Chester Ashley because he thought that Ashley tried
to have his appointment as Deputy Sheriff of Pulaski County revoked.
Garrett had apparently told several people that he would try to
cowhide or kill Ashley at some point. On January 17, 1828, he threatened
Ashley and late in the day entered the Gazette office, with a cowhide
and pistol. He repeated his threats and left. But later he met Robert
Crittenden at Nicholas Peay's tavern and then returned to the Gazette
office where only William E. Woodruff and Ashley remained. He fired
both barrels at Ashley, but Woodruff deflected his aim and the bullets
missed him. Another gun was fired, wounding Garrett, and then Ashley
fired one shot. Garrett dropped his gun and went across the street
to James Lemmon's gambling room. He died there. No one could figure
out who had fired the fatal shot, so the case closed with no indictment.

Early Years 1819:1866.)
