I am looking for info on the following article:
A Fatal Affray
Pike City, Ark., Aug 30. - In a fight last night Bee Coker struck Marion Johnson in the head with a stave inflicting fatal wounds. Johnson's brother attempted to prevent Coker's escape and was stabbed in the back by a brother of Coker. Both men will die.

B Coker is the correct spelling of his name. Marion is listed in the 1900 and 1910 census of Amity, m. to Neppie.
By 1906 B Coker was married and living in Waco,McLennan Co, TX and worked in law-enforcement all his life. His only surviving child is 86 y/o and would like some further info. Any help is appreciated.
