THE GIRL HERSELF WOUNDED
Sensational Tragedy Occurs In Mid.
kiff, w. Va.-Wm. Adkins Resented
Attentions of Ira Lucas to His
Daughter.

Huntington, w. Va, Dec. 27.-The
mystery surrounding the murder of
Lucian and Ira Lucas and the fatal
wounding Of Octave Adkins near Mid
klff, in Lincoln county, Sunday night
has been cleared The tragedy is even
more sensational than was at first sup
posed.
The first reports, obtained from ex-
cited residents of Midkiff, were mac
curate in several particulars. 1t is
now learned that the shooting was not
the work of assassins, but it was a
pitched battle in which three people
figured and four persons were shot in
stead of three.
Lucian and Ira Lucas had attended
church at Midkiff, and on their re urn
home in company with Miss Martha
Williams the party stopped at the
home OF William Adkins, Ira Lucas
being in love with the daughter CT Adj
kins. Adkins had frequently forbid
zen Lucas from visiting his home, and
Sunday night when Lucas, his brother
and Miss Williams called at the Ad-
kins home, the father followed his
daughter to the front door.

Fired Into Doorway.

Seeing that it was Lucas who de-
sired admittance, he forbade him en-
tering, but invited the remainder OF
the party in. This so enraged young
Ira Lucas that he pulled his revolver
and fired into the doorway, the sup
position being that he intended to kill
the father of the girl.
Lucas bullets went wild, however,
and one of them penetrated the body
of his sweetheart, Miss Adkins, and
she fell In the hallway seriously but
not fatally injured. Mr.. Adkins had
by this time his revolver in action,
and Lucian, the Oldest Lucas boy.
joined IN the shooting, which became
a battle to the death. Both Lucian and
Ira Lucas were killed outright and
their friend, Octave Adkins, was NOR
tally wounded. William Adkins, the
father, was uninjured, but there were
several bullet holes in his clothing.
Miss Williams, who was with the
Lucan boys, after her escort had been
shot dead, ran from the scene and
gave the alarm. When officers arrived
William Adkins Immediately surren-
Gered and is now under guard. His
daughter is in a serious condition, a
bullet having entered her right side,
but attending physicians say she will
recover
Octave Adkins is a nephew Of Will
lam Adkins. HIS death is momentarily
expected. He has not regained con-
scIousness. Hundreds Of people have
visited TIE Adkins home since the
shooting.
