lnjured Woman Claims She

After She Was Shot

Winona, Mississippi, March 90
Np Fifteen-year-old Kitty Jones,
who maintains steadfastly that she
shot her father, Ira Jones, to death
and seriously wounded her mother,
because they showed her nine-year-
old brother, Ira Jr, more attention
than they did her, today was in the
same Jail with Sam Boyd, 35, upon
whom the wounded mother LAYS the
blame Of the tragedy.
Boyd, who is married, was arrested
last night upon information from
Mrs. Jones that she saw him leaving
her room after she had been shot
She positively identified Boyd us the
man whom she saw leaving her bed
side.
Both the girl and Boyd admitted to
Officers last night that they had
passed notes and that the girl had
accepted money from Boyd, Sheriff
!. NJ. Thompson said.
Shot While Asleep
The shooting occurred Sunday
night after Jones and his wife had
retired. Both were asleep and Jones
probably never knew what killed him.
Mrs. Jones told the sheriff she did
not hear the shooting, hut awakened
to the knowledge that she could not
get up. She said she saw Boyd pass
ing FROM her room into the dining
room adjoining.
Mrs. Jones told officers her hus-
band had spoken to Boyd" about
his relations with Kitty some time
ago and that the men had quarreled.
Boyd corrobOrated this statement in
jail last night, the sheriff, said. He
denied. however. that he had killed
Jones.
