I found a newspaper clipping while researching and thought it might help someone else. It was in The Deaily Review, Decatur, IL on Jan. 12, 1893.

The clipping says William Bozarth, a butcher, quarreled with Finley Saunders over wages and the latter stabbed Bozarth in the back, inflicting serious wounds. Sanuders fled to the home of Stephen Tudor for refuge. When Constable Ortegal Caton went to the Tudor home to arrest Saunders, he was refused entrance. The constable shot Tudor in the head, killing him instantly, and Saunders escaped.
