Murdering for the cause

Charles Gundlach lays on the ground in the doorway of a farmhouse, his rifle next to him, while a woman kneeling next to him holds his hand. Outside of the house stand four men holding handguns. A caption reads: "Charles Gundlach, Aged 70, Maryland farmer, Killed by Four Dry Agents -- Gundlach Resisted Their Intrusion on his Property Without Search Warrants."
