TRAGEDY
At H|LLSV|L[E

HIILSVILLE, VA, May 25.-A
young farmer was slain and real
mountain shooting match was mar
rowly averted yesterday morning at
Cana. Carroll county. when Early
Jones. also a farmer. shot and killed
Joseph Bray. with whom he Is said
to have been on bad terms for sew
eral months. Jones is in Jail here un-
der close guard.
The shooting occurred at the Dunk
ard church, soon after the congre-
cation had been dismissed The
church is about one and one-half
miles from the home of Floyd Allen,
who was electrocuted for the Hills
willie courthouse murders, Jones.
who is the son of Floyd Jones. and
Bray had attended the services. and
when they went outside the church
they got into an argument Several
shots were fired, but this shooting is
believed TO have been done by friends
of both parties who were on the out
side of the church grounds. AS far
as known no one was injured in this
shooting. In the meanwhile Jones
and Bray had become separated from
the crowd that had left the church.
They engaged In hand to hand
struggle, and their friends diu not
think II would result in anything
more than black eye or few
bruises Suddenly. persons who were
nearby say, the lie was passed. Jones,
1t is said, drew his revolver and
pointed it at Bray. Bystanders say
Bray, realizing that Jones had the
drop on him, cried out in terror.
Don't shoot, don't shoot After a
few more words had passed between
the men Jones fired directly at Bray.
The man dropped to the ground and
Jones and his friends fed. Bray was
removed to nearby farmhouse. He
died tonight.
