Quarrel With Wife.
Brown said that his relations
with his wife and with Wilson
were friendly.
The boys said that the couple
had been quarreling all day,
Brown objecting to her going
down town with Wilson. Finally
she exclaimed:
I'm tired of this. I'm going
to leave you and live with Wilson
down town."
She left in anger, the boys said.
The third link of evidence was
the finding of the bloody hatchet.

Elmer Neal, carpenter. living
nearby, had been lathing the roof
of an addition to Browns house,
designed as room for Wilson. He
finished the job Saturday nights
leaving his tool chest In Browns

Brown exclaimed.
The arrest was made shortly
afterward. Brown submitted with
