JESSE BROCK Held
UNDER $500 BOND
FOR SHOOTING JAMES BROCK TO
UEhTH-Hls BROTHER
WOoDSON is DIS
CHARGED.

At the examining trial OF the two
Brock boys, charged with numbering
lanes Brock early In the week, before
County Judge James p. Bailey Fri-
day morning, Woodson Brock was dis
missod and Jesse Brock held over TO
await the action OF the grand jury
under $500 bond
The Testimony at the trial showed
that Jesse Brock had fired tho shot
which caused the death Of James
Brock. Il seems that James and Wood
son Brock we're passing by the home
OF James Brock, when he asked them
about reports which had been circu-
latlng. so he said. that he mad tried
to shoot them. The boys are said TO
have denied knowledge Of the reports
and Jesse is said TO have remarked
that he was not afraid of the old man
shCoting them at the same time at
tempting to pull a gun from his coat
pocket with one hand, and backing
off with his other arm held In front
OF his face.
James Brock is said to have re-
marked don't pull that thing out of
your pocket" at the same time 49,
his gun out and fired at Jesse. The
latter then got his gun out and shot
James Brock in the stomach, which
wound caused his death.
4 number Of different reports have
circulated about the threats which
were made pro and con between the
men. ana il seems that there was
very bad feeling existing between
them, which the grand jury viii be
given full opportunity TO probe.
