Bob Bryant, Deputy Constable

City of Depew

On October 21, 1911, Judge Hacker of Depew deputized Noah Craig, Willis Craig and Bob Bryant to arrest one of Offlie Page’s five sons on a charge of wife beating. The three deputies went to the Page home and as they entered, two of the sons had them covered with guns. Willis Craig grabbed one of the guns, a struggle ensued and shots were fired from inside and outside of the house. Bob Bryant fell fatally wounded. All of the Pages were arrested and charged with murder. Fourteen guns were confiscated from the home.
