According to the article Puffer had even told his wife that he had assaulted her. Taking Miss Rowe to a nearby river, he tried to drown her and then dragged her through the streets of Clarendon, Arkansas by her hair. A local telegraph lineman, Herbert Young, came to her aid and tried telephoning for help, but Puffer to the butt of his pistol and "nearly beat Young's head in". Another citizen, M. M. May, yelled at Puffer to stop and Puffer shot at Mr. May with a pistol. Mr. May returned with a shotgun and unloaded both barrels at the Marshall. "Everyone is afraid of Puffer. He got drunk a year ago and shot up the whole town. They fired him but elected him again shortly afterwards. Batesville Daily Guard, 16 Jul 1913, page 1
