"Meanwhile another of the Hall brothers,- JAMES HALL- came up for attention. They got him as he
was plowing by hiding near the fence and shooting him as he turned his plow at the furrow`s end.
His brother, John was with him and recognized three of the assassins, but the poor fellow was a
half-wit and fell an easy prey to the lawyers when the case was called a year or two later.He
became confused on the witness stand during the trial of Stephen Runnels, a son of the dead
Henry Runnels, and the prisoner was not held".

Ef Daggett`s Memoirs: Shelby Co., Library/Museum p.40:
"I was in town at this hanging. A troop of men, some half drunk went with Sheriff Alfred George to
arrest Mr. JOSEPH HALL. I was summoned to go along. Alfred George privately told me to watch
Lee Truitt, a cousin of the Truitts previously mentioned, for he feared Lee had been put up to kill
Hall. This was a judiscious warning so George and myself, after the arrest, rode one on either side
of Hall. Truitt had to ride in the brush and in that way Hall got to town and was taken to DEAL
(Dial) Hotel run by his relations.
The excitement was high when Hall got to the Hotel. He (Hall) declared William`s confession was
all false, and he appealed to every reasonable man to look at the thing reasonably. He said that he
had been against Bradley and had not spoken to him for years, that he had never seen Seekers(?)
or Williams that he had remembered. He had never known who killed his brother (Samuel) as his
brother was liable to get into quarrels he knew. After his brother was killed he knew that he and
Runnels had a fuss about hogs getting into the field".
