the three families adjoined each
other.
Young Boyce and Snead both
were suitors for the hand of Lena
Snyder. Snead won, and the
three families all attended the
wedding, and joined in the re-
joicing.
But the Sneads were not happy.
Young Boyce became frequent
visitor at their home. Snead f.
nally locked his wife in sani-
tarium.
Then Boyce eloped with Mrs.
Snead. The couple were arrested
in Canada, but could not be held.
Snead returned to Fort Worth,
and one evening shot and killed
Boyce's father in the lobby of a
local hotel. His defense is that
the elder Boyce conspired with
the younger to break up his home.

trial of her husband that has so
9astonihed the attorney in the
case.
In Fort Worth it is generally
believed that if Mrs. Snead were
to take the stand and say that her.
husband had been true husband
to her, and has made her home
life happy, he would be acquitted
instantly by the jury.
But Mrs. Snead does not want
to take the stand. Furthermore,
she made the extraordinary state
ment today that she loved Meth
er her husband nor young Boyce,
with whom she was supposed to
have been infatuated.
When asked to take the stand,
Mrs. Snead pouted.
E. Il don t want to go on the
stand" she said. 81 am afraid. l
don't want to give my testimony
one way or the other. Great in
huences are at work to make me
take the stand. But l don't want
to-"
Then followed her declaration
that she loved neither her hus-
band, nor Boyce.
The story that leads to the
Staying of Boyce is strange one.
The lives Of the Boyces and the
Sneads, the two families involved,
have been interviewer since the
early days of Texas. ]. B. Snead's
father and the elder Bovce came
to Texas about the same time.
