I wifo Inst night, except that James
had threatened to kill his wife's (
I mother yesterday afteinoon. 1
I Why this threat did not impress ,
i her son, Mr. Sid Kelloy, who is a
I very fearless and careful man, is
I not known. At all events he
shot his wife to deah in the ear'y
part of last night and the other in- 1
mates ofc .the house, bis wifo's '
mother and his two half-grown
{children, tied at once.
] CALLED TO WINDOW.
Hast night Mr. Kelley went to
the house and called James to the (
window and said to him that he (
was not armed and not to shoot

realized what he had done and '
| when James replied yes, that he
had killed Queen, Mr. Kelley told
him that he was coming into the
house. James warned him that

All night Mr. Kelley tried to in
duce James to come out and sur- .
render and guaranteed him protection.
To all of these efforts ^
James replied that be would not ^
come and said he would shoot
anyone who Qattempted to come
in.
Early this morning Mr. Kelley
sent word to Hartsville for several
of his friends 'to come up
and advise and aid him and went
again to induce Jamef to come
out. He went up to a window
with his gun over his shoulder
and smoking a cigar and engaged
James in conversation and finally
induced him to band him out a
$10 bill he had gotten frem Mrs.
Kelley Friday. He hoped to
grab bis hand when he handed
out the money and hold him but
failed to do so. Kelley Finally
told James ho was coming iDto
the house anyhow, and turned to
step down backwards off a box on
which he was standing. As he
turned off James shot him in the
neck, tearing out a large part of
the side of (he neck and killing ,
him instantly. Mr. Kelley was 1
smoking at the time and his body
fell backward, his gun across it
