Roy Williamson, the young man
in the employ of Ray Corbus who
was accidentally shot and killed at
the latter's sheep camp on Wednes-
day, the Bird inst, in the neighbor-
hood Of Rocky Bar, was buried at
Meridian last Saturday. The
boys father had some days prior to
the date of the accident to his boy
locked up his home and gone to the
bills in the neighborhood of Meri-
dian, and only by chance returned
in time to receive the lifeless re-
mains. His grief was most pathetic
and excited the witnesses to tears.
Williamson, the herder whose
hand held the gun which dealt the
young man his death wound, is
under arrest at Atlanta, where a
coroner's jury impanelled by Justice
of the Peace Hoffman returned a
verdict to the effect that young
Williamson came to his death from
q shot. fred from a gun in the
hands of Wright. County Attorney
Mclaughlin went to Atlanta yester-
day to investigate the affair and to
learn whether there is good ground
for holding Williamson, who is now
in jail in Atlanta.

Thus a mere study, more or less me
