Cured in front of Hinkle's store
about two hours before sundown, and
was the outgrowth of trouble about
two months old between the two
men. Goodson was tenant on his
place and from this relation sprang
the trouble.
George Hill, proprietor OF the Cor

a news reporter he stated that
Birdwell was at his place about 3
D. m. Tuesday, and came back there
after the fatal difficulty. claiming
that Goodson started the trouble and
drew pistol before he himself shot
twice with a shotgun. Hill further
says that Birdwell left the Corner
early this morning and came to Ada
and surrendered himself to the Off

The Ada officers expect the slayer
to come in all right. There is none
