\r\nThe 1870s were a violent period for the Millican\u2019s. Two of Elliott Millican\u2019s sons were involved in bloody feuds. On February 6, 1870 Brazos County deputy sheriff William H. Millican was killed by Colonel R. C. Myers in a personal dispute. John E. Millican was the Constable of Precinct No. 1 and a deputy sheriff in Brazos County. John E. Millican in turn shot and killed Colonel Myers. On August 29, 1872, Colonel Myers son and daughter shot and killed John E. Millican. The siblings were tried and it was a hung jury.
\r\n
\r\nOn August 9, 1881, W. L. Steele resigned as Constable of Precinct No. 1 and M. R. (Pet) Millican was appointed in his place. On September 12, 1881, the bond of M. R. Millican as Constable was approved.
\r\n
\r\nOn Saturday, December 14, 1889, Constable Millican was assassinated by Charles (Charlie) Campbell. Zeke and Poker Curd, brothers, enticed Campbell to kill the constable. All three were arrested and Campbell became a state\u2019s witness. The jury acquitted the Curd brothers. No reason was determined as to why the Curd\u2019s wanted to kill the constable.
\r\n
\r\nM. R.\u2019s brother, Wilbur (Will) Millican was a guard at the convict farm and had reportedly killed several men. He told the Curd brothers to leave Millican or he would kill them. Zeke Curd returned and Will Millican killed him in June 1890. On November 15, 1906, Will was shot and killed in a personal feud by a fellow guard.
\r\n

He had been a Constable for 8 years, 2 months and 2 days. No other personal information is known except he had at least one brother in Midland.
