the history OF Bristol. and has at
tracted wide attention. Hale is charged
with having criminal!y assaulted Miss
Davis. then murdered her.
The tragic death of Hiss Davis has
almost wrecked her mothers life and
has cast gloom over the entire fam
lily from which they can never escape.
John w. Davis, brother of the dead
girl, was here from Kingsport this
week. He said that he had just re-
turned from the burial of his young
est brother at Johnson City. Tenn.
and that his poor old mother was prac-
tically wreck. both mentally and
physically. She sobs Historically at
intervals when the shadow of her
great sorrow seems to shut out the
light of hope.
PitffuI Picture.
The picture is really one of the most
pitiful in the history of East Tennessee.
The mother of the girl. once an honored
member of one of the best families in
Kentucky. and for many years happy
in her home life. has witnessed mis-
fortune after misfortune in her own
household until she is unable to see
anything of comfort or joy left for
her. Her son, Irby Davis. was muir
dered by Roy Hale. brother of Ack
Hale, only few months before the
tragic fate that befell Lille Davis.
Roy Hale is in Jail at Jonesboro,
Washington county. and his case will
probably come up for trial ten days
after the trial OF his brother Ack. 1t
is said there will be no trouble to
prove that Roy Hale killed 1rby Davis,
but there were no eye-witnesses to the
killing of Lille Davis. and when she
was found in the cemetery she was
unconscious. so that she was uucble
to tell her story of the tragedy. Hale
does not deny having been alone with
the girl In the cemetery. but denies
that he shot her. and declares 1t to
have been a case of suicide.
