Deputy Constable William Carey was shot and killed by a traveling evangelist known as ''Cyclone Johnson.'' The evangelist had a history of assaulting people who disagreed with the way he preached.

Deputy Carey arrested the subject for assault and battery and escorted him to a nearby livery stable for trial. As a crowd of people gathered the subject produced a pistol and shot Deputy Carey twice in the chest. An unknown citizen returned fire killing the subject.

Deputy Carey had served with the Carmel Police Department for one year.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the one hundred and ninth anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer who was murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered.

Rest In Peace.
