;erm of court at Rumford, there was a
contest over the hearing on these cases,
he desiring bearing at that time, and
ais wife desiring postponement. The
hearings were finally continued by the
court to the next term, this action being
aiken just before the noon recess. Just
before the opening of the afternoon ses-
lion, Joe Bill appeared at the court room
md surrended himself to the officers,
laying that he had killed his wife. The
wife, who had been shot, lived about
wO hours.
