Bernie, I honestly just saw Vikki post about someone in the Chism family
talking about about the one Chism coming back to AR and living in fear of
running into or something like that) one of the Elliotts. I really didn't
know what had transpired. So there was a killing, huh? Oh, my! here we go
again!

Anyone have details? Which county was it in or do we know?
Was it in Indian Territory? Or might this have been Ft. Smith with the
hanging judge?

I'd love to know the details! Bernie did you have anything on this?

Well, I almost skipped over this post. Ben Chism killed someone? An
Elliott? Beth, is this the deal you were referring to?

Ben Chism, as in which one?

Got to hear about this. Sharon?
