FRANK COCKEREL

Frank Cockerel was a deputy, probably under Sheriff Sam Terry. On another matter he went to arrest Bogan. He stepped on to a high porch. Bogan had a pistol on the sewing machine, shot Cockerel in the hand, and it knocked him off of the high porch, and he fell onto the ground. Bogan then jumped on Cockerel’s horse and dashed away, or started to. Cockerel got up, rested his pistol on a tree, took careful aim, and shot Bogan off the horse and killed him.

Evidently the Bogan that was in Arizona was Dan. Both were boys down there in that river community. Their mother married three times, once to Pierce, and had a girl who married a Livingston. He could not recall the other husband.
