WOODBERRY. GA . Jun* 15.—When
W O. and Oscar Evans, father and son.
w buried today st th'* old Evane
family burying ground four miles north
of Greenville, one chapter in a Meri
wether count- family feud of more than
a > ear's standing was closed.
Another chapter will be enacted on
Monday morning, when O. C. Walton,
nephew of W O Evans, and cousin of
Oscar Evans, is given a commitment
trial at Greenville on charges of killing
the two Evanses, whom he shot to
death at the store of Fletcher Wheless.
three miles from Woodberry, yesterday.
After the killings. Walton went to
Greenville and surrendered to th* sher
iff of Meriwether county, who has him
in custody, but not in jail, pending his
preliminary hearing.
The trouble between Walton and his
relatives, the Evanses, began more than
a year ago. when they took opposite
•ides in a criminal case over a negro in
the city court at Greenville.
Dead Men's Side.
According to friends of the dead men.
Walton, at the time of that trial, drew
his pistol on W. O. Evans. Yesterday
the Evanses and Walton met in th*
Wheless store, when the convefMtion
drifted to firearms and shootli® af
frays W. O. Evans is quoted as say
ing "Well, I looked down the barrel
of one pistol, but I'll never look down
another." Walton. It Is said, replied
"It looks like you ar* trying to bring
up that old trouble again and want to
fight.”
With that, Evans' friends claim, Wal
ton drew his pistol and was about to
point It at the elder Evans when Oscar
Evans drew his weapon. Immediately
Walton, it is claimed, shot young
Evans through the head The elder
Evans by- this time had run to his bug
gy and secured his own gun and Wal
ton went after him. The two raced
around the store until Walton got the
drop on the elder Evans and shot him
down.
Walton's Story Different.
But. according to the other side,
there is a different story to the affray.
Walton claims that he was endeavoring
to avoid trouble, and when the elder
Evans started for his gun he, Walton,
endeavored to escape through a rear
floor, but that Oscar Evans stopped
him and threatened to kill' him if hr
moved another stop. Then Walton
filled. killing the younger Evans Tin!

Mm-n-rounri thcTUnra tour op five times,
when he turned and shot Evans in self
defense.
