DEFENDED HER HONOR
 LOST HER LIFE.
Mrs. SpraSSinS Shoots an ASsaiIant Dead
 After Being MOTtaiIy Wounded.

MrS. SpragGins, wife O. C. NJ. Spra%g nS, who was tran dispatcher of the A. X x. NJ. railroad fo. sev- cral years, leaving Clifton three years ago, met sad and tragic end ing at her home at Terrel recently.
 She was q bright and attractive woman, and made many friends in Clifton while residing here. The following dispatch from Terrell is not very explicit, but it tells the story:
 The killing of Joe Overton in this city last night caused q st e1sat:on here. He has been prominent merchant here number of years. being business manager and one of the perpetrators of Overton. Gilmore & Co. He was 36 years old and un- married. His friends had no int:ma- tion of the pending trouble. He was shot about 2 o'clock last night at the home of Mrs. G. NJ. Spraggins. who lives in West Terrell. The four piS- tol shots that were fired were heard by ncighbofs, who went to the scene and found the body of Overto1 lying face downward in a hallway ad joining Mrs. SpraGgins' room. with bullet hole in his back and breast. It was first thought that he was shot only once. but later investigation located q second shot in the back. the bullet lodging under the sk,n ia the breast. The other shot took effect near the left breast.
 The remains of Overton will be taken 60 Fort Worth for burial.
 Mrs. SpragginS was shot in the left side and mas since died. All she would say was that He shot me and tried to defend myself" When 1 told by the doctor that she-was going to die she said: "If 1 die tonight I 1 don't want to be bu.ied until day | 1fter tomorrow" Then she called l her daughter aged 9 and her son aged l l3 and said to them: II want YOU to l be pure, chaste children. Never do | anything wrong. If you start to do l wrong, think of the sad words of | your poor old mamma She was 30 | years old and had lived here three | years. She will be buried at Ellis | vile, Miss, where her parents reside. !
 "The husband of Mrs. Spraggins. l who is train dispatcher at La Junta. | Colo, was notified of the tragedy. | and is expected to arrive here | shortly.
