On September 1S, 1895, Thomas Wilks, then 10 years old, was returning from baptizing in com pany with some young ladies. They were in wagon which was driven by MT. Lyon When near McRae they were overtaken by John McAfee and Albert Clayton, who called to the driver to stop the wagon, saying they intended to take Wilks out and beat him to death The wagon was not stopped, when Clayton began beating young Wilks over the head with club The latter drew a revolver and fired at his assailant, but missed him, the ball striking John McAfee, killing him in stantly. For this offense Willts was ae- auitted In the meantime Clayton on several occasions swore he would kill Wilks. One evening while on his way home Clayton was shot from ambush and instantly killed.
