Special Appointed Deputy U.S. Marshall. Siblings: John Hailey- Find A Grave Memorial# 64995096; Martha Ann "Mattie" Hailey Fullar Carter- Find A Grave Memorial# 77207879; Augusta Hailey McDonald- Find A Grave Memorial# 29828521;
uncle of Mary Veola "Ola" Fullar/ Fuller Williams Finc Andrews- Find A Grave Memorial# 28183492;
His nephew Ezra told me this story:
Uncle Bud was challenged to a duel with pistols in Tenn or Arkansas. He had first shot, but missed. The other fellow was about to take his shot when Bud's father, fearful his son was about to be shot dead, used his gun to shoot the dueling man, who died. I assume he was arrested - it went to court. The judge's final decision was that it was a fair shooting because 'all parties were armed'. The family was about to leave town in their covered wagon because of hard feelings over the verdict. The dead man's friends, cowboys, rode up on horseback. The first cowboy drew his gun to shoot the father, but it misfired. One of the family tossed a rifle to his brother John, who shot the cowboy right out of his saddle. The second cowboy threw up his hands and said, "I'm fer peace!" The family left town and moved to Oklahoma after that.
