thirty-seven years old. The couple
were married about I'VE years. Two
years ago. after the death of their
child, they separated and Mrs. Reed
opened the store to support herself
and her mother.
Mrs. Reed, it is said. had recently
engaged attorneys TO institute suit
Tor divorce. Reed heard Of the con-
templated action and called at the
store several times TO try to per-
suade his wife 10 live with him again,
but she refused 10 return 10 him.
Had Been At Work
Persons living in Brentwood say
that Reed was drinking last Satur-
day and Sunday. He told his uncle.
John White. that he feared he was
losing his mind. but Monday morning
he went 10 work and yesterday he
seemed to be in better spirits than
he had been in several weeks. He
quit work about 8 o'clock yeste sday
afternoon and went directly 10 his
wife's store.
From what Mrs. Knowles said today
there was nothing about his actions
TO suggest that the visit was anything
more than a friendly cali. He talked
pleasantly for a few minutes, asked his
wife If she would no. reconsider re-
turning 10 him, and thea suddenly drew
the revolver from his pocket. placed his
left arm around Mrs. Reeds waist and
commenced firing.
NelghbOrs say that Reeds jealousy of
attentions alleged 10 have been paid his
wife by other men WEs wholly mag
mary Mrs. Reed bore an excellent
reputation in the little town. and Reed's
sole complaint. it is said, was that an
elderly man. who is an old friend OF the
family, frequently carried her basket

turned from shopping trip in Wash
