It was a desperately hot night on August 16, 1888 and many people were out in "the Chute" - the seedy underbelly of Louisville, Kentucky. Before dawn would break however, two officers would be struck down, and both would die within hours. The deaths of the two family men, both of whom left behind wives and children, would strike a chord with Louisville citizens and the impact of their sacrifice reverberates until the present time.
