Record in Ancestory.com shows place as St.Joe. It was actually in Ravenwood, behind the train stn, committed by 3 young men (I have one name only) to steal his money from livestock sale in St.Joe. They had drank together in SJ, then played poker on train, but Joe won their $. The murderer was an older brother of a famous man. This Joe was the grandfather of a couple of our classmates, Harold Cross (dec.)and Betty Cross Lee, owner,mgr of a Bedford restaurant.
