The Lawman and the Outlaw
by Clara Talton Fugate

• When the Lawman died, the funeral procession traversed forty miles of Southwest Virginia hills. A Virginia state trooper stood at attention at each intersection along the way. At the cemetery, J.E. Fugate’s mourners could not keep from remembering Kinnie, J.E.’s childhood friend andmentor who had grown up to become a murderer, prison trustee and escapee — a legendary Outlaw. This book chronicles the lives and adventures of these two men as they travel towards opposite ends of the law.

• “Acquaintances learned to respect the Fugate gun, even when J.E. was still a boy with no thoughts of becoming the Virginia State Policeman he became in later years. He had learned to handle a gun from the master gunman, Kinnie Wagner.” (page 15)

• “The lawman’s older brother stated, ‘I might be prejudiced, but I believe the law helped make an outlaw of Kinnie Wagner.’” (page 28)
