wife's honor. himself was shot and
Killed on lonely country road near
here late Sunday by Mrs. Wilson.
And in Wilson persisted the fourth
man intimately connected with tho
pretty, dark-haired woman who now

nave ranched near Dexter, were re-
turning with tho Wilson's. According
10 their story. Wilson had been driv-
ing very fast. when a stop was made
Tor tire trouble and Wilson left the
car, Mrs. Wilson slid into the drivers
,seat, insisting she would drive. An
argument followed and Mrs. Wilson
suddenly shot twice with an auto
matte pistol she had taken nom the
dap Of one OF the seats.
Wilson, whose home was in Win
field, had been much in the public
eye here recently. Indicted into the

complained to draft officials that his
wife had reported suffering at the
hands OF her foreman. Frank An

her. The case was turned over to
Federal officials, but evidently nothing
was done.
When Wilson returned from the
army he went TO TahlculLah. There

crushed around a corner, but was
killed by Wilson as he reached for
his sons pistol.
Because Of the unusual appeal,
business men Of Winfield subscribed
