DEATH OF Mr.. NEAL

Mr.. H. j. Neal, who was so severely
burned in the gasoline explosion at
the Fairbanks orange grove at Island
Grove week before last, an account
of which we published at the time,
died at the Marion county hospital
in this city Tuesday. He was brought
to the hospital several days before
his death, which ever since the acct
dent was considered almost inevita-
BILE. Mr.. Neal suffered a very great
deal, and for several days before
death finally ended his sufferings was
in great agony and out of his mind.
AT the time of the accident, when
two other men were also burned, but
only slightly, Mr.. Neal had just been
sent up to the grove from Tavares by
the citrus exchange to take charge of
the shipping, and had not yet begun
work at the grove.
AS we stated at the time of the ac-
cident it was caused by one of the
men throwing match into tank of
gasoline, which was thought to be
water. thus causing the explosion,
which resulted SO dreadfully and ia
tally to Mr.. Neal
The body was prepared for burial
by Messrs. McIver & MacKay. A tel
egram was received from Mr.. Meals
mother, asking that the body be ship
ped to her home in Yorkville, s. c..
for burial, but later another telegram
was received from brother Of the
deceased stating that he would reach
0cala Wednesday and leave for
South Carolina with the body.
This DREADFUL accident is very
greataly deplored.

MRS WILSON AND MRS. HURST


The grand jury, after a thorough
examination OF the case CT the state
/ OF Florida against Mrs. Anna Wilson
! charged with the murder of her hus-
band in the Fort Mccoy neighborhood
some months ago, exonerated her by
filing in open court mo true bill"
i 1t will be remembered that after
spending certain Sunday at her
fathers home, Mr.. and Mrs Wilson
LEFT on foot for their home along
the public road; that they had not
proceeded very far when pistol shots
were heard, and the dead body OF her
husband was found some time after
ward in the middle of the road
The pistol with which the shooting
was done was found some distance IN
the woods from where the shooting
took place.
After committing the deed the wo-
the woods in the direction Of her
home, and at first disclaimed any
knowledge of how the shooting was
done or who did il. But soon after
her incarceration she sent for the
sheriff and made a full confession to
him. She said that her husband was
under the influence OF liquor and on
their way home he became more and
more quarrelsome and finally struck
her and threatened 70 kill her, when
she drew the revolver, which she had
concealed. and OF which he was I'M
conscious. and warned him OF his dan
ger, but he became more furious,
when she finally fired, and as ne con-
tinued to advance upon her she was
compelled TO fire the second time,
when he fell dead in his tracks.
Several Witnesses testified in her
favor To the fact that when under the
influence OF liquor her husband was
very abusive, and treated her most
cruelty.
The witnesses before the grand jury
must have given similar or even
stronger testimony in her favor, with
the result that the case against her
was dismissed
The case against Mrs. Lula Hurst
was also dismissed. II will be recall
ed that she was held as an accessory
in the Boiler murder. in which her
husband and son are held as princi
pals. She was let at liberty under a
three hundred dollar bond. The facts
brought out before the grand jury
were not sufficiently strong TO hold
her as an accessory. so she was exon
Grated 70 the extent of no true bill'
being found against her.
So our county will be saved the
modification OF having two womer
tried n not COW icted OF murder.
