exhibited considerable resentment to-
ward the woman and her cousin when
they returned.

town, a village on the state line east
of here, yesterday afternoon, and to
have come home about o'clock in

charged Mrs. Isley with being too
friendly with another man. The cou-
sin was also drawn into the discus

threatened to kill the other man. He
was persuaded to put the weapon back |

leave the house, which is about sixty
yards south OF the Squires sludge mill,
and ran toward the home OF John Phil

lection there.
Grabbing her by the arm, Hicks is
said to have cried:
Come back here; if you don't I'll
kill you"
