Deputy Marshal Dillaway succumbed to gunshot wounds sustained one week earlier when he was mistaken for an armed striker during a railroad labor dispute in Memphis, Tennessee. Deputy Marshal Dillaway, along with another marshal and a railroad policeman, were on a switch engine at the Nonconnah Yard when they were shot at by other railroad guards while investigating a disturbance.
