Both in Jail, Pending Word from Solicitor About Bond ? Conflicting Testi mony Heard SHOOTING OCCURRED ON TUESDAY NIGHT, JAN. 17 H. E. Martin and R. R. Fish r for Prosecution ? D. L. English and L. P. Ham lin for Defense ?J.oe Rt-vjs was held by Coroney'S jury Wednesday morning for Crim inal court on the clinrge of killing Ulys Robinson,, and Mrs. Laura Rob inson, daughter of Revis and wife of the slain mail was h&ld for aiding arid abetting said crime. Robinson was shot Tuesday night, January 17, brought to Transylvania Hospital Wednesday afternoon, and died- early, Sunday morning as a result of the' wounds. Both Rev. is and Mrs. Rob inson wei'3 placed in jail until Solicitor Pless and other attorneys can agrie upon amount of bonds for the two defendants. (''arence Fisher acted as special coroner at the investigation, and Messrs. R. P. Kilpatrick, Frank Garren, W. T. Aown, Milan Nichol son, Dan W. Merrill and A. B. Owen constituted the jury. ? First session was held last Saturday after noon, when the jury viewed the body of Robinson, and the hearing was then continued, until Wednesday morning, when evidence in the case was presented by, witnesses. Solicitor J. Will Pless, Jr., could not be present, and H. E. Martin, county attorney, ''was delegated to represent the solicitor at the inves tigation, Ralplj R. Fisher represent ed private . prosecution, while D. L. English and L. P. Hamlin represent ed Revis and Mrs. Martin. Rev. Roland Robinson, brother of the murdered rnan, Was the first wit ness to be examined. He was with biy brother much of the time from '^hesday night of the shooting until Rb^inson died Sunday morning. Further than -establishing the fact that Ulys Robinson was a native of this county, .w^s shot, .and^died as a result* of "SflCtl 'AtftrtiridS. * '"Re^r "Mr* Robinson was not questioned. Mrs. Laura Robinson, widow of the slain man, was the next witness. She testified that her father, Joe Rcjvis. shot Ulvs Robinson when the latter was making effort to kill her , her fnther. She testified that Robinson had an axe in one hand and a hunting knife in the other, when her father shot him. Robinson and the witness, she testified, had been making liquor during the day preceding the shooting in the even ing. and that Robinson was drunk when night came on. She vowed he started a fuss with Virgil Hyatt, young mountain boy who had been at the Robinson home since the pre ceding Sunday; that. both she and her father endeavored to quiet Rob inson. and urged him not to fight the young man, as he was not strong and had done nothing to Robinson. Then he got mad at them, the wit ness said, and turned his attention to Revis and Mrs. Robinson. The -witness described how Robinson chased her father and herself about the house, into the yard and fol lowed her father back into the house, whereupon Revis procured the gun, ran again into the yard where Rob inson was threatening her. Mrs. Robinson said her father called v.o her to break loose from her husband and run. This she did, she said, and then Robinson turned again on Revis with axe in one hand and a big knife ' in the other, and it was at that point of the scrap that Revis fired the shot that proved fatal to her hus band. Attorneys questioned Mrs. Robin son closely, and she lost her temper several times, replying heatedly to the questions shot at her by the law yers. She told .at length how she ?vert for assistance as soon as her husband fell; how she found the woumK-d it-itii. in vii ? t?vd upon her! jvuirn n .;!? li.'ti v, ami said she i ihouylt 'I.-vis' and young Hyatt hail carried iTobiiiAon into tin- hous;-; i\ ! .! i[UO.->t tolled as to the lirst taK lie told of tin- shooting;, when it ..as deilared by her that Clyde < happell, Hovie Chappell and Ray . loml Fisher had called her husband from the' house ami shot ini, Mrs. Robinson . said her husband advised her to tell that story, believing he would recover from his wounds, and asserted that Robinson said he was to b!ani!> for the row, therefore . he didn't want his father-in-law to suf fer for tl'ie shooting. Mrs. Robinson insisted that when she told the tiist story she was not on oath, and she didn't consider much harm ..iust .to tell a lie, but when she Jakes an oath on the Bible, she is. going. to tell the truth, for that is much different from just telling a thing. Virgil Hyatt was the next \vitn.ss called into the room. His evidence ! was quite different from that given by Mrs. Robinson. Hyatt is about ?>0 years of ?.ge, pathetic in appear-; ance, and seemed to impress ilv large crowd with his perfect candor i in telling what he knew about the , shooting. He had been at the Rob- i, inson home since Sunday preceding j the affair. Young Hyatt said he had | remained at the house practically, all | day Tuesday, and that Robinson and ; his wife came in about 5 o'clock in in the evening. All were drinking, j Hyatt said, and soon a row started. J The witness said Revis and Mrs. Rob-'1 inson were fussing at Robinson, and , about 8 o'clock Revis told Robinson | if he wanted to fight, to come on out into the yard and fight. Some. : one asked the witness to try to | quiet Robinson, he swore, and he ! made effort to do so, but Robinson j told him to turn him loose and' get away. He did. Then he became frightened, the witness said, and he and the young brother of Mrs. Rob- . inson ran up on the mountainside to . got away from the trouble. A few I! minutes later lie heard the report of , the gun, and some time later Mrs. Robinson came by and told the boys ; that her husband had been shot, and she was going for assistance, and , any on- came there during her ab- 1. pence for them to say that some men ?r*me~ tW- h<HiP?f ?? into the yard and shot him. ; Hvatj was questioned about the j. trouble between himself and Robin- ij son and swore that there had been no trouble at all. He testified that . Robinson was not fussing at him ^ during the evening and had made no effort to fight him. He saw no knives . or other weapons about the house except the shot gun, he said. Hyatt ; did not return to the house until ' after Mrs. Robinson returned from , the Chandler's, where she had gone for assistance. He went to bed, afte-- a while, but did not. sleep , much. ... :'?.{( Mrs. Robinson had testified that , u(-on h?r return from the Chandler's! that Revis was sitting on a rock j' near the door, crving, while Virgil Hyitt sat hy the door. Young Hyatt is said to be suffer in-? with weak heart, and attorneys'; ?-ere verv careful in their oxamina- , tion .of him, having been warned by , nhvsicians that any excitement might : cause the young man's death. Anderson Chandler was the .next i witness. He canto to the house ^soon j after th " shooting, as Mrs. Robinson | plead with him to do. Ulys Robin son. he said, told him that Joe Revis had shot him. Mr. Chandler had seen | no big hunting knife about the > house! such as Mrs. Robinson had described in her testimony. Being recalled to the stand, Mr. Chandler ( said his wif? hail told him several ( weeks ago that Mrs. Robinson had told her that she intended to kill her husband, Ulys Robinson, if she had to shoot him down on Pack Square in the middle of Ashcville. ' Sheriff B. .1. Sitton took the stand, and told of being called to the scenc , of the crime. The sheriff told of [his investigation, of finding the place; (Continued on page four I y Fats and Leans to Battle Friday ; Proceeds for Hospital Charity Fund i On Friday evening at 7:30 two basketball came* will be played in the High School auditorium for the benefit of the Hospital Guild.
