PISTOL WOUND .
CAUSES DEATH
Smith Found Dead in
His Room With Hole
Through Head.

The lifeless body of Charles
Harper Smith was found in his
room at the home of his sister,
Mrs. J.. B. Crowl of sos Auburn
street, this morning a minute after
relatives had heard a pistol shot.
John w. Mason. assistant prose
cutting attorney; j. L.. Blocher,
county coroner, T. Hawkins, a de-
putty sheriff, and &C: Wheeler, a
constable, answered the call to the
Crowl home.
When the officers entered the
oom they found Smiths body
with a bullet wound through his
head. The wound is believed to
have been caused by a .32 caiibre
revolver found on the floor near
by. Powder burns on the side of
the head wherein bullet entered
caused officers to believe that the
shot was fired at close range. The
ball passed through the head and
was found on the floor of the Dol
by one of the officers making the
Investigation
Deputy Sheriff Hawkins said
Mrs. Carpenter a relative OF the
dead man, said that just a short
time before the shot was heard in
the room she met Smith in a hall
way on the second floor of the
house. He was carrying two sacks
filed with money and offered them
to her. She also said that she saw
a gun in his pocket.
Mrs. Crowl sister of the dead
man, was not at home at the time,
being in the city at a physicians
office. Mrs. Carpenter told the
deputy that she came downstairs
after talking with Smith and in a
short time heard a pistol shot in
his room.
When the officers made their
Investigation they found the two
ed and counted the money. The
bags contained $5O5.35 cents.
Some of the money, according to.
the story told by county officers,
were worn, indicating that they
had been carried in the bags for
some time.
Coroner Blocher, after making
his preliminary survey of the stu
alton, ordered the body removed
to Jenkins undertaking establish
ment to be prepared for burial.
Mr.. Blocher announced after his
return to his office that he WOULD
impanel a coroner's jury and pre-
sent the Information obtained by
him to the jury with the recon-
mendation that the jury return a
verdict of death from unknown
causes. The coroner said it will
Smith was handling the gun audit
went off %in1icting the wound that
caused his death OF whether it was
caused otherwise. There being no
eye witnesses to the affair, the
testimony of Mrs. Carpenter and
the officers who found the body
will be all that will be needed.
Mr.. Smith returned to this city
about a month ago from Florida,
where he spent the'winter with his
sister, Mrs. Crowl. The deceased
man was "a son of the late Mr..
and Mrs. Jackson Smith and was
born at Arnettsville where he lived
there until he moved to this city
sixteen years ago to make his
home with his sister. He had not
been engaged in any work for
some time, his last employment
being with the Owens Bottle Co.,
in this city
No funeral arrangements have
been made as yet.
