| Rucker, James Jefferson | Noted educator dead Was professor at Georgetown college for fifty-three years Georgetown – Educational circles in the south lost one of its leading figures when Dr. James Jefferson Rucker, for 53 years professor of mathematics at Georgetown college, died at his home here. Dr. Rucker was not only prominent in educational circles, but was one of the pioneers in the temperance movement, and his writings on local option have had effect on the movement in the south. Born in Randolph county, Missouri, January 27, 1828, he came to Kentucky, entering Georgetown college as a student in the spring of 1852, and took his A.B. degree with the honors of his class in 1854. He became principal of the academy, the preparatory or high school department of the college, in 1855. The Winchester Democrat, Friday, August 26, 1910 Hon. J.M.

| Rucker, Joseph B. | In Somerset the Coroner’s jury found that Editor Rucker came to his death at the hands of ex-Chief of Police John C. Anderson. The citizens held a mass meeting at which it was resolved that the citizens co-operate in the attempt to suppress crime in Pulaski. A fund was started to erect a monument to the dead editor, and $ 500.00 was raised. The Democrat, Wednesday, September 28, 1892. SOMERSET and Pulaski county just now are having a very unenviable notoriety for lawlessness and murder. Joseph B. Rucker, editor of the Reporter, had been very bitter in his denunciation of lawlessness and the laxity of the officials in enforcing the laws. As he was going home from his office he was shot by some one in hiding, from the effects of which he died in a few hours. Circumstances pointed strongly to ex-Chief of Police, John Anderson, whom Rucker had frequently scored for not doing his duty. Anderson is gone, but as there is a reward of $ 2,000 for his arrest, he will no doubt be caught soon. The next day David Norfielt was waylaid and killed by Milt Britton. The latter has been arrested and lynching is strongly talked of. Two days later another man, whose name we have forgotten, was hot in the same county. Surely, if Pulaski county citizens do their duty there will be a demand for hemp in that section. The Democrat, Wednesday, September 28, 1892. J. C. ANDERSON, who assassinated Editor Rucker at Somerset, is supposed to have been captured at Sherman, Texas. The Democrat, Wednesday, February 22, 1893. |

| Rucker, William B. | The Rucker Assassination At the Southern depot on the outskirts of Danville between 10 and 11 p. m. Thursday W. B. Rucker as assassinated. The purpose was robbery. He was shot in the top of his head while sleeping with his head resting on a table. The perpetrator of the crime has not been found. Mr. Rucker was a young man of noble character. His mother is a sister of Mrs. Lucy Owen, of this county, and a half sister to Miss Mattie Griggs, of the city. The Sun-Sentinel, Thur., Feb. 11, 1904 Mystery clearing Lexington, Ky., – Roger Rucker, of this city, is running down a clew which may divulge the identity of the man who murdered his brother, William, who was the telegraph operator for the Q & C railroad, and while at his key was shot through the head. The murderer rifled the ticket office and disappeared. The Winchester Democrat, Tuesday, October 27, 1908 After many years The murderer of W.R. Rucker, a former Clark county man, likely to be apprehended Nearly four years ago, William R. Rucker, a telegraph operator, was in charge of the Queen & Crescent at Danville. He was the regular night operator but that day was doing double duty, the day operator, McKenzie Hatter, having gone to Cincinnati. It was almost midnight and he was tired with the double duties of the day. He had just sent a train out and the train dispatcher told him the next train that was due had been taken off and he could get a little rest before the next came along. Grateful for this opportunity to secure a little repose, he folded his overcoat on the desk before him and, with his hand on the key of his instrument he bowed his head on the improvised pillow and entered upon that rest that was never to be disturbed again in life. The murderer was evidently watching and kneeling by the window in front of the sleeping man; he rested his pistol on the window sill and sent a bullet crashing into the brain of his victim. Death was instantaneous and the victim passed from time to eternity without a moment’s warning. In a short time a man came to meet the train which was nearly due, and found the operator, as he thought, asleep. He was joined by several traveling men who had been unable to get response to telephone calls from the hotel. A small round hole in the window pane, a corresponding hole in the top of Rucker’s head, and a tiny rivulet of blood across the table and on to the floor told the tale as to how the crime was committed. The missing cash drawer which had contained about twenty dollars furnished a motive. The noted bloodhounds, Nick Carter, and Ivy Belle, were soon on hand, but could do nothing. Detectives were hurried from Lexington on a fast freight and other sleuths from various places were put to work without avail. The whole division of the Cincinnati Southern was watched as were connecting lines. The trail had been lost in the cliffs of Kentucky River and the farmers of that vicinity searched and patrolled the section until it seemed none could escape. Various parties were detained but all succeeded in establishing alibis. Among those arrested were two towards whom suspicion pointed strongly, but nothing could be definitely proved. One of these has since died and the other is serving a forty years sentence in the penitentiary for another murder. Rewards aggregating $1,500 were offered and have never been withdrawn. Stimulated by a desire to earn this, detectives worked on the case for a long time. Clue after clue was worked out without result and the public gradually lost sight of the crime. A few days ago, Roger Rucker, of Lexington, a brother of the murdered man, secured a clew which he has not made public, but which he hopes may prove to be a solution of the mystery, and which he will have worked out, and it is to be hoped that the hitherto impenetrable mystery which has hung over this murder may be dispelled. The murdered man was well known in this county. He was a nephew of Mrs. A. Howard Hampton and had numerous other relatives in the county. At the time he was killed, his brother, Jonas Rucker, was telegraph operator at Ford. In view of the interest which was evoked by the murder, and in the interest of justice, it is to be hoped that this latest clue may be the one to secure the arrest and conviction of the murderer.

| Runyan, C. C. | A Bloody Fight. C. C.

No one was present, and consequently, no one knows the circumstances of the encounter. The Winchester Democrat, Tuesday, December 6, 1898 Both Killed. Kentucky Marshall Shot by a Lumberman Whom He Was Trying to Arrest—Fatally Wounded His Adversary. Jackson, Ky., Dec. 6.—C. C. Runyan, city marshall, and Alfred Allen, a lumberman, lie dead, as the result of bullet wounds. Runyan was shot by Allen, whom he was attempting to arrest. As he fell he fired two bullets into Allen. Allen died instantly, but Runyan lived several minutes. During the evening several other shots were fired in different parts of the town. The marshal was trying to catch the party doing it. About 8 o’clock some shots were fired at the corner of Broadway and College avenue. Marshal Runyan, being near, ran toward the shooting. It is supposed he met Allen near the corner, and from all appearances, they clinched, and had a struggle. No one knows at what time in the struggle they commenced shooting. Runyan was trying to take Allen’s revolver, and had it, together with his own, when he fell. Runyan is from Boyd county, was a fearless officer and a terror to law breakers.

He was apparently as well as usual Monday afternoon. He was one of the seven Mexican war veterans living in Lexington. In 1876 he became associated with the late B. G.

He leaves one child, Miss Virgie Runyon, who is a trained nurse in the Bellevue hospital, New York city.

| Runyon, Fred | Horrible wreck Engine blown from track on C & O Railroad near Colby station FOUR MEN MEET DEATH Three men were instantly killed and another so badly injured that he died while on the way to the hospital at Lexington as a result of a wreck on the C & O road near Colby Station, about five miles from this city at 12:15 Tuesday. The dead are: George Harp, engineer, Lexington; Fred Runyon, fireman, Olive Hill; Claude K. Marshall, fireman, Lexington; George Berry, brakeman, Mt. Savage. The train, a heavy freight, was run as a double header, and was running at the rate of twenty miles and hour, when the boiler of the front engine, No. 232, was blown up and turned in the opposite direction from which it was traveling. The force of the explosion was so great that it shook houses some distance from the wreck, and blew heavy parts of the machinery into adjoining fields, 100 yards away. The cause of the disaster is not known yet, but it is said that the engine had not been in working order for several weeks, and that the injector was not in proper working order. The pony trucks and front drive wheels of the second engine were derailed, but the engineer and fireman escaped injury. The word was at once telephoned to this city, and Drs Shirley, McKinley, Browne and Combs & Combs were immediately sent to the scene, besides a number of people from town drove out. When they arrived Engineer Geo. W. Harp, Fireman Claude Marshall and Brakeman George Berry were dead. Fireman Runyon was placed on a passenger train which backed to Winchester and left over the L & E road with Runyon for the hospital at Lexington. Runyon died on the way. Engineer Harp was blown up in the air, and fell in time for the pony trucks of the somersaulting engine to rest across his horribly torn body, and it was late in the evening before he could be removed. Fireman Claude K. Marshall was found under the debris between the two engines. Brakeman Berry had his body so badly torn that his remains were picked up in a basket. Runyon was found a little distance from the wreck mangled and badly bruised. All the bodies were sent to Lexington that night. The disaster, while not as great from the standpoint of loss as some which have occurred, was the most horrible one that has occurred in this section in years.

| Runyons, Harrison | A Triple Crime. William Runyons Confesses to Murdering His Cousin and a Woman and Her Baby. Louisville, Ky., Sept. 20.—Mrs. Sara Runyons, who with her 17-year-old son, Adam Runyons, is confined in the county jail on the charge of having retailed moonshine whisky in Clay county received a letter Wednesday morning which discloses a tragedy and solves the mystery surrounding the disappearance of her husband who left his home almost three years ago and never returned. The letter is from G. W. F. Chapman, a brother-in-law of Mrs. Runyons, and the writer says that Wm. Runyons, a cousin of her husband, has confessed to the murder and robbery of her husband, and also confesses to having murdered Alice Schoolcraft and her baby, whom Harrison Runyons was escorting to their home in Clay county.

| Rupard, Bessie Lewis | Deaths Slowly but surely consumption carried away the life of Bessie Lewis Rupard. The end came at her father’s home in the country the first day of the new year. The burial was at College Hill with service by her beloved Pastor, Rev. Geo. Froh. In the creation it appears that some are made to be loved more than others and Bessie was one of them. Her own mother was dead but she had in her step-mother all that she could have had from her own. All was done that could be done. She spent some time in Colorado and when she returned last spring a year ago she was married to the man that she loved so well, Mr. E. C. Rupard. Again, with her devoted husband, health was sought by travel but without favorable results. Her short life of twenty years is ended but in that short time she was a source of sunshine and joy to all who knew her. The Sun-Sentinel, Thur., Jan. 7, 1904 |

| Rupard, Mrs. Susan Stevenson | Horrible Accident. Samuel T. Rupard and Wife Instantly Killed by a Passenger Train. One of the saddest accidents which we have ever been called upon to chronicle for a long time, occurred Saturday morning, by which Samuel T. Rupard and Mrs. Susan Rupard, his wife, were instantly killed. As stated in another column, information was received here Friday of the unfortunate accident in West Virginia by which Hiram P. Rogers lost his life, and that the remains would reach here the following morning; also that the body would be interred with Masonic ceremonies. Mrs. Rupard, before her marriage, was Miss Stevenson, and was thus an aunt of Mrs. Rogers, the wife of the man whose body was to be brought here. Mr. Rupard was also a member of the same Masonic Lodge as the deceased and came prepared to attend the burial as a Mason. As they reached the crossing of the C. and O. road and the Iron Works pike, their buggy was struck by the regular West bound passenger train and the vehicle was completely demolished, although the horse was not hurt. Mrs. Rupard was instantly killed, her skull being crushed, besides other injuries being inflicted. Mr. Rupard’s skull was also fractured, his side and hip crushed and his leg and arm broken. He lived a few minutes but never regained consciousness. The bodies were placed on the train which also contained the body of the relative whom they came to meet, and all of the bodies were brought to this city. Mr. Rupard was about sixty-five years old and was a native of this county where he was widely known and universally respected. Mrs. Rupard was formerly Miss Stevenson, a daughter of Samuel Stevenson, and was justly very popular. They leave two children, Walter D. Rupard, of Pilot View, and Mrs. Annie Flynn, of this city, widow of the late Fielding Flynn. The funerals were held yesterday at Ephesus by Revs. R. French and J. A. Francis and the remains were interred at old Sugar Ridge. The Winchester Democrat, Tuesday, June 20, 1899 The Coroner’s Verdict. Coroner Wills and a jury composed of Jas. Ecton, W. N. West, G. D. Karsner, G. D. McCollum, Eli Bruce and J. W. Ogden, met at the Courthouse Monday afternoon pursuant to adjournment to investigate the killing of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel T. Rupard by a train of the C. and O. road Saturday morning. After much deliberation, they brought in a verdict merely reciting the fact of the killing without either blame or exoneration. The funeral Monday at Ephesus was one of the largest ever assembled in that section of the county. Mr. Rupard was an earnest member of the Baptist Church and Mrs. Rupard was zealous, consistent member of W. H. Cunningham Lodge F. and A. M. under whose auspices the burial took place. It is said that engineer Owen, who was at the throttle at the time of the accident, was also in charge of the engines which ran down and killed the Steele brothers near Pine Grove a year or two ago. The Winchester Democrat, Friday, June 23, 1899. J. A. Ramsey, auct., reports the sale of W. D. Rupard, administrator of S. T. Rupard, last Thursday, as well attended and bidding spirited. The Winchester Democrat, Tue., July 11, 1899 County Court Items W. D. Rupard appointed administrator of Susan M. Rupard. The Winchester Democrat, Fri., Sept. 1, 1899 Circuit Court Among the more prominent of the new suits is that of the administrators of Mr. and Mrs. Sam T. Rupard against the C. & O. railroad; twenty thousand dollars damages in each case is asked for their death. The Winchester Democrat, Tue., Sept. 19, 1899 Circuit Court The administrators of Mr. and Mrs. Rupard who were killed by a C. & O. train a few miles east of this city last year, brought suit for a large amount in this court, but the railroad had it transferred to the Federal court. The plaintiffs had it dismissed there and brought suit again here for an amount too small to be carried to the Federal court. Judge Scott decided that as that court had assumed jurisdiction it could not again come to the Circuit Court. The Winchester Democrat, Fri., Feb. 23, 1900 |

Rupard by a train of the C. and O. road Saturday morning. After much deliberation, they brought in a verdict merely reciting the fact of the killing without either blame or exoneration. The funeral Monday at Ephesus was one of the largest ever assembled in that section of the county. Mr. Rupard was an earnest member of the Baptist Church and Mrs. Rupard was zealous, consistent member of W. H. Cunningham Lodge F. and A. M. under whose auspices the burial took place. It is said that engineer Owen, who was at the throttle at the time of the accident, was also in charge of the engines which ran down and killed the Steele brothers near Pine Grove a year or two ago. The Winchester Democrat, Friday, June 23, 1899. Death of Ottie Robinson. Issac O. Robinson died Monday, June 19th, at the Agnew Hospital, Kansas City, Missouri, after a long illness of locomotor ataxia, aged seventy-two years. He was a native of Jessamine county, but for a long time a prominent farmer of this county, where he has a number of relatives. He was a brother of the late Dr. T. Robinson, of this city. His wife was Miss Kelley, a sister of Mrs. Mary Artis, of this city. One son, Joe K. Robinson, lives in California, and a daughter lives in Missouri. The Winchester Democrat, Tuesday, June 27, 1899. Card Of Thanks We desire to thank our friends for their kindness and sympathy shown to us during our great trouble, on account of the killing of our parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. T. Rupard. Mrs. Annie F. Flynn W. D. Rupard The Winchester Democratic, Fri., June 30, 1899 J. A. Ramsey, auct., reports the sale of W. D. Rupard, administrator of S. T. Rupard, last Thursday, as well attended and bidding spirited. The Winchester Democrat, Tue., July 11, 1899 Circuit Court Among the more prominent of the new suits is that of the administrators of Mr. and Mrs. Sam T. Rupard against the C. & O. railroad; twenty thousand dollars damages in each case is asked for their death. The Winchester Democrat, Tue., Sept. 19, 1899 Circuit Court The administrators of Mr. and Mrs. Rupard who were killed by a C. & O. train a few miles east of this city last year, brought suit for a large amount in this court, but the railroad had it transferred to the Federal court. The plaintiffs had it dismissed there and brought suit again here for an amount too small to be carried to the Federal court. Judge Scott decided that as that court had assumed jurisdiction it could not again come to the Circuit Court. The Winchester Democrat, Fri., Feb. 23, 1900 Big Suit Compromised. Some time ago Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Rupard while on their way to this city in a buggy, were run over and killed by a C. & O. train at the crossing of the ironworks pike. Suits for damage in a large sum in each case was brought in the Clark Circuit Court, but were afterward transferred to the Federal Court. These suits were compromised recently by the payment of three thousand dollars by the railroad. The Winchester Democrat, Tuesday, April 8, 1902 |

| Rupard, William | Eld. William Rupard The above is a very correct likeness of the late Elder Wm. Rupard. He was born in this county in 1825, and died of heart disease at his home eight miles east of this city, February 20th, 1904. The remains were buried in the family burying ground the following day, after funeral services, conducted by Eld. J. J. Gilbert. Mr. Rupard was a minister of the primitive Baptist church. He was pastor of Liberty church in Estill county for fifty-four years, and of Cane Spring, in Madison county, Lulbegrud, in Montgomery county, and Goshen, in this county, for more than fifth years, preaching once a month at each of the churches. He leaves a wife, to whom he had been married fifty years, and six children – Thomas and William Rupard, Mrs. Emma Boone, Mrs. Byrd Rowlett, Mrs. Kate Emmerson and Miss Linule Rupard. Two brothers and two sisters, A. H. and Samuel Rupard, and Mrs. Minerva Pace, of this county, and Mrs. Martha Tribble, of Carlisle, also survive. The Sun-Sentinel, Thursday, February 25, 1904 The Late Wm. Rupard In all ages, in all counties, and in all sections men have lived, who have by their individuality, so impressed themselves upon their fellows that they are honored and respected to an extent not accorded to the average of men. Such a man was Wm. Rupard. A man among men, a Christian and a gentleman. Many years ago, when I first met Mr. Rupard I was so much impressed with him that I looked for the name in history, but could not find it. I was familiar with the name of Rupert, from Prince Rupert, of England, and the vast territory known as Rupert’s Land, which is now part of the Canadian possessions. When I met Mr. Rupard again he told me that Rupert was the real name, but that sometime in the past century the name by mistake was written Rupard in some official documents and was accepted by the family. Mr. Rupard was of the material out of which rulers are made, and in his sphere as shepherd over the good old Baptists of Goshen, Cane Spring, Liberty and Lulbegrud, and in fact, among his people everywhere, he was a ruler indeed. Not in the sense of arbitrary ruling. This would have been the last thing that Brother Rupard would have thought of, or that his brethren would have tolerated. It was his ceasar head, his honesty, his love of God and his fellowmen that gave him the wonderful power he possessed. He voted the republican ticket, but held himself aloof from all partisanship, and repeatedly declined political honors that would have been gladly given him. His mission was to preach the gospel. How well he did it, hundreds who read this know far better that I. But of the few sermons that it was my pleasure to hear him preach I indorsed every word that he said. A great and good man has gone to his reward. His place cannot be filled. Others will come and go and fill their missions with credit, but there was but one Wm. Rupard, and the place that he occupied will remain vacant. The Sun-Sentinel, Thursday, February 25, 1904 Will Probated The will of Eld. Wm. Rupard, dated July 16, 1901, provides for the sale of 10 acres of land at Kiddville, the proceeds to be used in paying his debts, and bequeaths, to his wife, Mary M. Rupard, the home place of 100 acres during her life, also all household goods and farming implements, two horses and three cows of her own selection and $200 in cash; to his daughter, Melinda Rupard, $140 to make her equal in advancements to other children, and to his children, Thomas Rupard, William Rupard, Nannie Rowlett, Emma Boone, Mary Katherine Emerson and Melinda Rupard the residue of his estate to be divided equally between them.
