On September 7, 1882, Constable Marion Shephard, was sent to Wadena to arrest Bill and Ike Barber for the theft of a horse and buggy. Shephard approached the brothers to make an arrest and was shot twice in the chest, and was fatally wounded by Ike Barber. The Barber brothers were not arrest until almost a year later in Bremer County. They were later busted out of Bremer County jail, and hung by a lynch mob.
