It wasn't an oversight, as far as I recall.  Ben got rammed into the
wall next to the fireplace by Doc Hayward, and yet in a later scene
Doc is helping Harry to watch over Coop at the Great Northern.  If
he had killed Ben, Doc would be in jail.  Thus, unless Doc and all the
witnesses (from memory, this includes Sylvia Horne) conspired to
cover up the death, Ben must not be dead.
