JOHN FOWLER

 

Once they had John Fowler working in the saloon. He was very high tempered. He came in once and Cooper was sitting there with his head all bandaged up. Mr. Williams asked him what was the matter. Cooper said Fowler shot him. Fowler said he only hit him with a billiard cue. Mr. Williams said he kept them there until they made friends.

(This is probably the same Fowler who later worked in Watson’s Saloon on the north side. Lewis Manning up the street had a saloon, not doing so well. People surged into Watson’s. He went down there. Was very high tempered, started an argument, and Fowler hit him and knocked him clear out in the street. (Told by Mr. Brunk.)
