Matt Ward was tried in the Hardin Circuit Court at Elizabethtown, KY, April, 1854, for the murder of W. H. G. Butler. McDade explains: ""Butler, the principal of Louisville High School, had whipped Matt Ward's younger brother. Matt demanded an apology of Butler, not for the whipping but for calling the boy a liar. The apology not forthcoming, words followed; and Ward, having come prepared for blood, shot Butler. Kentucky justice was that Ward was promptly acquitted" McDade 1042. Sabin 70981.
