In 1914, Dr. John “Jack” C. Hughes, a practicing physician, was charged with the shooting of I.J. Bagley from room 47, the corner room on the second story of the Hotel Rhea building. Dr. Hughes provided a strong alibi, introducing witnesses to prove that he was in his own office 200 feet away from room 47 also in the Rhea block when the shooting was done, leading to his acquittal.
