detailed account of the tragedy.
The boys were at their own home.
Instead of the homo of Harrison, as tho

on and when they got In about 30 feet
of the end he opened firo on them from
his hiding place, which was a denso

tore up the plows.

ng different stories to secure one with
which to commit hie crime. He finally
fell upon one that succeeded. Going
