KILLED BY BROTHER
Family Feud at Craaesviile ON aesday
Results FATALLY

AS the result of a family quarrel. the
elimination OF bitter feeling which had
existed for years, Thomas Mattingly was
shot and instantly killed by his brother
Joseph Tuesday morning at the home of
the mother of the two men i'm Cranes
vile. The Mattingly brothers were well
known residents of that section, where
they were born and reared. Both were
married, and Joseph was about 81 years
old, while Thomas was seven years his
junior. The trouble between the two
originated several years ago when both
men resided with their mother. and soon
after Joseph married and went into his
own home. Thomas later married sis
ter of his brother wife and continued To
live at the old homestead, at which JOS
eph was frequent visitor. Each time
the two met they had a storm of words.
but their frequent alterations never de-
veloped into open hostilitics until Tues
day. when Thomas insisted that his
brother leave the house and keep aw.y.
Joseph resented the language used and
advanced upon the other threateninply.
and il is alleged struck him. Thomas
drew knife and slashed Joseph over the
stomach
Thomas then went To the Wilhelm res
idence nearby and shortly started to re-
turn, and when within fifty yards OF the
house his brother advanced with target
rifle and fired, the ball striking Just below
the heart and going clear through the
body killing him almost instantly.
Joseph has severe knife cut over the
stomach which his wife claims was inhict-
cd 10y Thomas before the shooting. The
wound was dressed by DR.. w. +. DALEY,
OF Terra Alta, who does not consider IL
dangerous.
The funeral of the murdered man took
place yesterday.
Thomas was lumber inspector for the
Crane Lumber Company of Morgantown,
and he, rs well as his brother, was highl v
thought OF in the community. IL is
stated by those familiar with the circnn-
stances of the beginning OF the quarrel
that the men fell out over bankruptcy
proceedings which closed the sawrniIl
business of Mattingly Brothers, in which
they were partners.
