Harry J. Noble

Detective Harry Noble succumbed to a gunshot wound sustained two days earlier when he was shot in the back while arresting two men for trespassing in the rail yards in Bellevue, Ohio.

Rest In Peace Detective Harry J. Noble. Thank You for your Service and Sacrifice protecting America's steel roadways. I also Thank You for your Military Service to our country.

I Pray for Peace for your Family, Friends and Co-Workers. I also Pray that the hounds of hell forever gnaw on the carcass' of your murderers. May they rot in hell where they will be consumed by the lake of fire. May their suffering be greater than no man has ever endured.

Amen.
