Rill Jones is talcing fols confinement
in Bibb county jail very quietly. Every
day hia ceil is besieged by visitors—Ws
friends who are interested In -tho case
and hundreds of curious people, who
want simply to "see how he looks.”
Jones says he is feeling much better
than When (he first came. He says he
ate the first mea'l In several days on
the day after he came in and gave him
self up to Sheriff Wes toot*. He was
taken sick on the day after he left
Macon and has been having chills Und
fever.
He now looks more like himself since
shaving and cleaning up. He is off
very much In fiesh, 'Chough, and looks
really thin In comparison to his former
floahlnesG.
On every occasion and to everybody
Jones tells the same story of the kill
ing, setting up seif-defense as his mo
tive for the deed. He expresses every
confidence 4n the strength Of his case
and eeems to feel tha'i he will be able
to establish Justifiable homicide. As
yet he has not retained a lawyer. Sev
eral have been dn consultation with
him, uind much of hla time during the
day has been taken up with them since
he was locked up.
He wut questioned by a Telegraph
reporter puinicukrrly about 'the pistol,
which da said to have been found be
hind the bar counter where Fields was
staradlng when he told Jones he would
have half of the book accounts before
he would leave the store. As to -tho
fatal part of the difficulty, Mr. .Tones
said:
•'When ‘I told Mr. Fields that every
thing was square between us . except
the book accounts, he never said any
thing, but reached over on the counter
und began copying from a little hand
book I kept my private accounts in. I
remonstrated -wfen him, telling him he
had no right .to interfere with my
private 'affaurs. He said he would show
me that he did (have <a right; that I had
to give him half of these accounts.
•'Without, answering 'this, I walked
from 'behind the counter in the gro
cery dnto the bar, and while sdanding
Just inside the partition Chait divides
the bar from the grocery. Field’s came
In behind the counter through into the
bar. I-Ie wailked. up opposite to where
I -was standing 'and uhrew a piece of
paper down on the counter, saying.
’Nohv, that’s right.* He then (had his
pistol In his hand. I said: ‘Mr. Fields,
you know that is not right.* He efcUd;
•Well, right or wrong, I am going to
have half of these accounts before you
leave this store.*
"I walked baick to Che grocery *and
stopped at Che passageway between the
counter leading buck to the bar parti
tion and the one leading on up to the
front of 'the store. Ho came up behind
tflje counter after I had stood there a
few romutes, -and stood at the corner
next to me.’I said: 'Air. Fields, did you
get mad because I didn’t send tho
money you wrote for the oth»r day
and signed your name to tho note?”
He said: ” 'What note?’
•’The note that you sent here in your
•wife's name for 32”
'• ‘If you say that I signed my wife’s
name to that note you tare a -Mar,* ho
next said.
"I protested against the use of such
language, and said: 'I didn't know
that you wrote it; I thought you did.*
He said: "Yes. If you *ay I wrote
than note you are a liar.”
"I then reached in ray vest pocket for
my specks to read the note to him, and
as I,did co he grabbed me 4n the collar
und at 'the same time (throwing his right
hand on his hip pocket.
"I thought he had his pistol there.
Lt had not been three minutes since ho
had dt buck in the bar and in a threaten
ing manner, noo, and when- he followed
me back Into »the grocery T had no
reason but to believe that ho had it in
his pocket, seeing him reach there for
It. So I drew my pistol nnd fired. Ah I
did so I saw that he did not have it in
his pocket, for he turned and started
back Into the bar where I last saw
him with it. I thought, though, he was
going In to get It and this Is why I shot
the second time. Af»er I fired the sec
ond time I turned and left the store.
I did not see him when he fell. I left
belbre the smoke had cleared away
from my pistol.”
"Tell mo where you went, Mr. Jones,
and why you left if you felt Justified In
the killing."
"I will answer the second part of
your question first. I went off because
I did not feel Immediately safe. I knew
I was In the' midst of Field*’ friends,
who would moat likely want vengeance
for his death. I ran away from fear of
rough handling, and from whit I have
learned since I noted wisely.
"Now, as to where I wont this has
been misrepresented oil along. You
people have had me in the swamp all
the time, when the truth Is I have no*
been there any more than was neces
sary In making my way through the
country. I went doom by the Georgia
mMIs. out across the East Tennessee
road, down the Georgia Southern road
bdlow Stratton’s blrck yard to the
switch. I went off on the turnout for
some distance and (then struck but
across the country to the Southwestern
railroad- track. I follbwed the raHrand
down beyond Ficheconnee and then
branched bff to Tom Hill's bouse In
Houston county,where I spent tho night
nnd a i>ir <>r ?h-» \vh*»l- fim*- I vv-t-t
away. I remained right around in this
neighborhood all the lime. I came back
to Macbn on the night of the second
day I was awhv to see how things were
going, and findl ng the feeling among
FieklH* friends so intense I went back
ami remained until I came In and gave
my«elf up/*
