Guns of Monegaw and the Roscoe Gun Battle

By Meredith Anderson and Linda C. Anderson

The stories written in this book have been told and retold, but never better than in the book "THE ROSCOE GUN BATTLE" by Wilbur A. Zink of Appleton City, Missouri. We, the authors hope that we have portrayed the times, the characters and the incidents as clearly and concisely as Mr. Zink would like. Two of the Younger brothers, Jim and John met Pinkerton agents Captain Lull and Detective Wright on the Old Chalk Road near the black community of Montgomery. Captain Lull, a Union army Civil War Veteran shot first with a No. 2 Smith & Wesson revolver that he had secreted behind his back. The bullet struck John in the neck, but John got off a shot of his own, a shotgun blast that broke Lull's left arm and sent his horse into the brush at the side of the road.
