YOUNG FARMER

rent Falls in Tracks and
Dies Instantly.

Fort Worth, Texas, Oct. 21.-"I
done what | thought | had to, and
and | expect to take what's coming
to me-"
Douglas Beasley, p years old,
farmer boy who shot his father to
deaths yesterday near Oak Grove,
twelve miles south of Fort Worth,
as fast as he could work the slide of
a Winchester which he had bought
to meet his father with, thus express
ed at the county Jail last night his
unflinching resignation to the fate
which he believes must follow upon
his awful act.
Young Beasley went to his faith
er's place near Oak Grove, Tarrant
county, yesterday afternoon just af-
ter the family had finished dinner
and as the father had started to
drive away in buggy. Douglas stop
ped--his father just in front of the
ga te, to the lot and began to talk. The
old man angrily rejected the boys
proposition. and seeing the gun in
Douglas hands, called to another of
his sons to bring a gun from the
house
Then l stepped back and shot, ;"
said Douglas, quietly last night,
"and | shot till he fell"
Without waiting to consult his
brother and sister or to look further
at his victim, Douglas left, gun in
hand, for the home of Farmer Smith
with whom he had been living for
the past two years. There he told
the facts of the killing and got Mr..
Smith to bring him to Fort Worth
to jail Deputy Sheriffs Snow and
Purvis, who were dispatched to Oak
Grove as soon as the news of the
killing reached the sheriff's office,
met the buggy with Smith and young
Beasley a few miles out of Fort
Worth and the party at once return
ed here.
Young Beasley wore his weather
stained farm clothes just as he had
left his work, and his face was tense
from thought of the enormity of the
act he had just committed, but there
was no lack of resolution in his eye
or voice when he told the county at
torney very simply that he wanted
to give himself up to the law.
