Web Trial To Be Friday At Richmond
Murder Warrant Issued For Prisoner: Rites Are Held For Marcum
Special to The Leader
Richmond, Ky., June 6 – Willie Webb, 45, who Friday shot and killed Earl Marcum, 28, at the home of Dewey Lakes in the Red Lick neighborhood, today was charged with willful murder in a warrant issued by Judge Vernon Leer and his examining trail set for next Friday in Madison county court.
Webb was arrested late Friday afternoon at his home on Red Lick several hours after he had called the office of Sheriff John McWilliams here and reported the killing.
He explained his failure to come here to surrender to the feat of relatives of Marcum. He had told Sheriff McWilliams that he would be in to surrender.
The shooting of Marcum is believed by officers to have been an indirect result of a fight which Marcum is said to have had with Arthur Webb, a brother of Willie, several years ago.
At the Madison county jail Willie Webb said that Marcum struck him and knocked him down and that “I shot him off of me.”
Funeral services for Marcum were held today at the family burial ground on Red Lick. He is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jim Willie Marcum, his wife and one child.

Earl Marcum Is Victim Of Bullet; Surrender In Case Is Awaited
Berea, Ky., June 5 – Earl Marcum, 28, highway construction worker, was shot and killed today while he was at a home in the Jackson Hollow section two and one-half miles west of Big Hill.
A short time after the shooting, Madison County Sheriff John McWilliams at Richmond received a phone call from a man who said he was Willie Webb of the Big Hill section. The caller told the sheriff that he had killed a man and that he would be in Richmond in a “couple of hours” to surrender.
Webb had been employed as night watchman on the highway project now under way near Big Hill. His home is in the Red Lick section.
Marcum, who was a son of James Will Marcum, Big Hill, is survived by his wife, one child and his parents. His body was brought to Berea.
The cause of the fatal shooting had not been learned by Berea or Madison county officers early this afternoon. Contact with residents of the neighborhood where the shooting occurred failed to bring forth any definite information.
