Brother Isaac Rice was one of three witnesses against Louise. Fayette Hosey was named as a co-respondent.Very interesting reading. Email for copies. Found at SHELBY COUNTY HISTORICAL SOCIETY Columbiana,AL. Notes for JOSEPH BOWMAN: Note 1: Items received from Barbara Handley, Birmingham, AL 19 Nov 1999:

a. Article in The Shelby Chronicle, Vol. 3, Number 30, Columbiana, Alabama, C. C. DuBose, Editor & Prop., Thursday, January 31, 1889. "A man by the name of Joe Bowman was killed near Calera last Thursday while resisting arrest on a warrant for wife beating. James Hanley was the unfortunate officer who killed him. Hanley surrendered himself to the authorities." (Note by Barbara Handley: The newspaper was a weekly, published on Thursdays, so if Bowman was shot last Thursday, then the actual date would have been January 24, 1889.)

ADDEND: THE SHELBY SENTINEL (date jan10) curator of Columbiana museum validates correct date as 2/7/89: "Nothing has yet been learned of the whereabouts of James Handley,the murderer of Joe Bowman,who escaped from an officer here wile enroute to jail at Columbiana. We hope the governor will offer a reware for his capture."
