James Mcrritt, white, aged about, 47,killed his wife this morning with a repeating rifle and immediately turned the weapon upon himself sending a bullet into his chest. Mrs. Merrit was walking home with a woman neighbor when her husband arose from a clump of hlishes hv the r?f tl,n ?'A,wl aiul with barely a word of warning shot her througt the heart. Dentil was instantaneous. Tell your husband to come down here, said Meritt to his wife's companion, for 1 am going to kill myself, too. The woman ran. In a moment she heard the second report of the rifle. When neighbors went to the scene they found Merrit gasping in death by the corpse of his wife, The theory is that the woman and Merritt were not actually man and wife, but had eloped, leaving other families, and that officers were after them.
