From the November 7, 1940, edition of The Tiller and Toiler, a picture of Francis Cunningham Hawkins, first sheriff of Pawnee county. According to L. W. Webb, who provided the picture, Mr. Hawkins died a number of years ago in Arkansas. His wife was a Larned girl -- Lizzie Miller. Mr. Webb recalls that Mr. Hawkins was a fearless officer but a kindly individual. Also from that edition of The Tiller and Toiler, Frank C. Hawkins, Sr. of Rogers, Ark., writes about his father, Francis Cunningham Hawkins, Pawnee county's first sheriff: "I possess the old revolver which he carried at the time he was sheriff. I was born in Larned and was nine months old when my father moved to Arkansas."
