mark their graves with the official
American Legion markers, provided
that it is found, after consulting the

MISSING MAN NOT
YET HEARD FROM
Mrs. ]. p. Milton Denies the Story
that Her Husband was Unkind or
Trying to Get Her Property

Mrs. J. P Milton, nee Miss Penny
Nix. whose husband. ]. p Milton, was
driven from home Tuesday night,
came to town this morning and gave
the StaI the following letter:
Editor Star: / hope you will set
matters at rights as regards the ter
rible affair that happened at my horne
Tuesday evening, at atsout o'clock,
as my dear husband. myself and my
aged sister were at supper.
Without the slightest warning three
men came hurriedly through the
house, and two of them with pistols
pointed directly at my husbands head
rushed up and placed the barrels of
the pistols one on each side of his
head, while the third man with a shot
gun stood behind. They rushed him
from the house with their arms about
his shoulders without saying a word,
through the back door and porch and
around the house. / ran after them
to the back porch. trying to see who
they were and trying to catch up with
and hold on to my husband; and if !
had had pistol at that moment j
would have done the best l could to
shoot at least one of them.
/ have been asked if / knew of any
reason why any one would do such a
terrible thing as has been done and ]
say now that there has not been the
slightest trouble between my hus-
band and l., and he has never mis-
treated me in any way, and / do not
made any such statement as has been
attributed to him by parties who told
the sheriff that Mr.. Milton said he
| intended to kill my sister and myself
to get our property. Mr.. Milton has
property of his own and is of a good
family of Hazelhurst, Ga He also has
property in this county, where he ha,
been known since August of 1918.
l feel that a great crime has beer
committed against my husband, my.
self and against the good name of the
county, where l have spent about Al
years of my life.
Personally, l expect to do every
thing in my power to run down those
guilty, and shall hope to have the
help of all right thinking people, a!
well as the courts in the undertaking
Yours truly, Mrs. J. p Milton.
Everybody who knows "Miss Pen
ny" has confidence in her and from
what men who know Milton and hav,
done business with him since he cam,
here have told the Star, he seems t,
have been an Industrious and reliabl,
man.
On the other hand. Chief of Polio,
Gordon has telegram from the chic
of police at Blackshear, saying Mil
ton had been in the Georgia asylum
four years, and asking for informa
tion about his actions in Florida. On
of our citizens who knows Milton wei
says that he made remarks to hin
that strongly indicated an unsettle'
mind. g
1t is a tangled case, but Sherif
Thomas will probably unravel it in
few days.
