JEALOUS HUSBAND
Beats Up Two Men and Leaves Them
For Dead.

Jackson, Tenn, Oct. Trouble
about woman in the Eighth Dis
trict of this county yesterday was
the cause of tragedy which has
broken up home, will probably
cause the death of two men, and a
third is in Jail.
Tom and Charlie Robinson went
to the home of Ed Priest, about 3
O'Clock in the morning, and asked
to remain. They haI been drink
ing, and in order not to have trouble
Priest permitted them to stay. vs.s
He had formerly suspected their
actions i'll regard to his wife, and
had moved out of their community.
Sunday morning he ordered them
to leave his home. Trouble fol-
lowed, and he attacked the men
with an unloaded s tgun. He
struck Tom on the head, fractur-
ing e skull n d exposing the
brain. He then struck Charles on
the head and also broke his arm.
Both men lay as if dead, and to
make certain that both we're, Priest
poured a bucket of water over each
OF them. He then saddled his horse,
told his wife to leave home, took
their only child, little girl, in his
arms, and brought her to his moth
er's in Jackson. He met the Sher-
if, told him what he had done, sur
rendered and went to jail.
The two Robinson's lay for hours
where priest had left them before
receiving attention. 1t was report
