War; .$Gd not know what caused tho trov between Sheets and his son She pressed great sympathy for the DO mother of the boy and said that be father and son were much dissi- pated.
 Both Men Were Drinking.
 Jesse Durham. a boy about 1S years old a nephew of W. T. Sheets, who lived with him. said that he was near ORears store at the corner of Hall and Houston Streets, about 100 yards from the Sheets home yesterday morn ing about II o'clock when he met Claude Sheets.
 He had been drinking" said young Durham. but won't say he was drunk. I got him some water and he went on to the house. He hadn't been home since Saturday night. Yes. un- cle Tom had been drinking, but I wouldn't say he was drunk. When heard that Claude was shot I told Wal ter, who was in O'Rear's, that Claude was shot, but he thought I was jok- ing. I ran up to the house and saw Claude lying on the bed. I spoke to him, but he did not answer me. I then came back and told Walter that Claude was shot and he went to the house. but when he got there Claude was dead"
 The boy said that he did not know what was the trouble between his un- cle and his cousin, and did not know whether they had had any previous trouble.
 Yesterday aftern oon the Sheets home was closed, the shutters were drawn and its aspect was gloomy. The hus- band was in jail. the son was dead in an undertaking establishment down town and the grief-stricken mother, on persuasion of neighbors and friends. had gone to the home of her brother, Mir. Burdette, near Pickett Springs
 The little Durham boy wandered aim lessly about the neighborhood, the door of his adopted home locKed. and with sorrow in his soul under the load of misfortune which had been heaped upon his innocent head. He walked back and forth by the deserted home and tried to realize the terrible trag- edy which had destroyed the happiness of his Easter morn.
 The pistol used by Sheets was a 32- calibre weapon and when taken charge of by Coroner Tice had two cartridges in the cylinder exploded. The pistol was rusty and with the ex- ception of the pearl handle presented a dirty appearance.
 Although two shots were fired. only one shot struck young Sheets. The bullet entered the left side just above the hip and the leaden messenger of death is believed to have struck the hip bone and glanced upward, passing through some of the vital organs of the stomach.
 In hts investigation of the tragedy Coroner Tice declared his verdict to be that Claude Sheets came to his death from pistol shot wound by the hand of his father, ". T. sheetk
 Drink wrought poverty in the Sheets home and there is no money to pay the burial expenses of the dead man. It was said last night at the undertaking establishment where the body lay that the indications were that the body would be buried today in a paupers grave at Oakwood Cemetery.
