st. Matthews, July 5.-Nocs Was
received here this mornine the
drowning Of j. w. b. Bee man IN

afternoon, in the extreme upper sor-
ton of this county. After a long and
tedious search, Beckham's body was
found late this afternoon.
He was known to the public as hav-
ing killed his step-father, Henry
Frank, by the roadside, October %,
1912. was tried for the offence at the
first Criminal Court in November fol-
lowing and acquitted. Since that time,
it seems, he lost interest in his farm,
built a tent on the bank of the Con-
garee River, and lived the life of a
fisherman.
Reports all agree that he had been
drinking heavily under his new and
weird surroundings. and his unfor-
tunate end was not a surprise here.
He was AZ or 43 years old, and when
not in his cups was a man of splendid
manners and pleasing personality.
Nineteen years ago he married Miss
Ellen Davis. daughter OF Elnaler Da-
Wis. deceased, who for ears req
resented Lexington Count N the
Legislature. She died d. 1907. 1eaV-
ing one son and two daughters. ms
mother, Mrs. Frank. two half-broth-
ers and one half-sister, are still living.
His father, DR.. Beckham. while on
his way from Columbia to his home.
was thrown from his buggy into Il
ditch and his neck broken as the re-
suit Of runaway. This happened
when Willie" Beckham, the son, wa.
just four months old.
The death Of Mr.. Beckham ends
family feud which had existed for
many years. He and his step-feth-
er were enemies of long standing, and
only the graves of both would have
ever covered the wounds engendered.
