Fearless and determined Justice (1838–1896) of the Indian Territory in western Arkansas who earned the nickname ‘The Hanging Judge’ because of the great number of convictions he secured against criminals, renegades, and fugitives from justice. Uncommon partly-printed DS, signed “I. C. Parker,” one page, 8.25 x 5.25, June 3, 1890. Oath of office in which A. P. Walker is sworn in as a US Marshal for the Western District of Arkansas, signed and dated at the conclusion by Walker. Horizontal fold to lower portion, uniform toning, and show-through from docketing on reverse, otherwise fine condition. Serving during one of the most dangerous times of western expansion, Parker sent 79 people to the gallows. Incidentally, as a reflection of the frontier violence, as many as 109 deputy marshals were killed in the line of duty during that time.
