Company F 22 Arkansas Infantry
Civil War Confederate

*Obituary
Benton County Democrat
Thursday, November 2, 1893
LEE, Sylvester - (from The Fayetteville Sentinel) Sylvester Lee, known among his friends as Syl Lee, a citizen of Benton county who was attending court here as a witness in the Wishon forgery case, was shot to death Saturday night by Sam Dilsworth, a night watchman. The crime was committed at the wagon yard opposite Kell and Davenport's livery stable, East Mountain street. It seems Lee had been joking Dilsworth when the latter offered Lee ten dollars to knock off his star. Lee did so when Dilsworth commenced firing on him, killing Lee instantly. Lee was about 65 years old and a peaceable, citizen, given to joking. Our circuit court is now in session and the grand jury will no doubt make a speedy investigation. We forbear further comment. The body of Mr. Lee was taken to the depot by his friends here Sunday evening and shipped to Garfield where it was taken in charge by his family for interment. Mr. Wade Sikes of Rogers, Lee's brother-in-law, and several other friends came down on the morning train and accompanied the body to Garfield.
