By one of the most remarkable fights ever made by the Memphis fire department a disastrous- conflagration was prevented and a loss that might have reached into the hundreds of thousands was limited to about $10,000, when the fire fighters subdued in an incredibly short time the conflagration in the Hill cotton shed Madison avenue and Wellington street. The blaze wns one of the most spectacular ever witness ed in Memphis and drew a larg crowd. China Grove, Special. Edward Abby shot and killed Dan Overcash near Kauuapolis, just over the Ca barrus line and made good his es cape. A posee with bloodhounds are in pursuit of the slayer, but a; a late hour at noght no word has come fiom the puisurers. Overcash and AsLby were broth ers-in-law and the tradegy grew out of a domestic difficulty about which there is considerable mystery. Per sons who "have arrived here from the nejghbor:oyd where the crime was committed toil the story of the crim and thess! details are given for what they are worth. Ashbv went to the house of Kce-e l'etnel Snnelav and accused i ethcl b wife of imnrorjer conduct with Over - i i iir.di lf-larmo fnnt lr I'etliel Vn;u t'o wilh him to the woods he would produce proof of his charges. Peth- el accompanied Ahby to the woods bnt. it is said. Atdibv' was unable to show the husband proof of the wife s misconduct. Pethcl cleclar-.il then that the best way to settle the matter was to interview Overcash, and Pefht-l and his wife went to Asii- by's home after him. Ashby ac companied the Pethcl willingly, but instead of stopping at Pethel's home where it had been atrreed the con ference was to be held, the Pethe'S took him bevond into a thicket. where Ashbv was secreted., Ashby stepped out from his hiding place us Overcarsh approached and shot him dead, immediately taking llignt. There is considerable mystery be hind the crime and it will require much investigation to bring to light the truth. Ashbv. it is said, had threatened Sundav mominjr some hours prior to the tragedy to kill Overcash on sight. Suspicion rests upon Petliel and his wife-for com plicity in a plot to kill Overcash -and it is "presumed that they will be ar rested on that charge. Sheriff Crowder of Rowan county wos informed of the crime Sunday afternoon and with a posse and bloodhounds undertook the search for Ashbv bnt thus far without suc cess. Ashby has the reputation of be onc a desnerate character. About four years ago he killed his father Jim Ashby a noted whiskey trans porter, because the father had bru tally whipped his daugther, Edward Ashbv 's sister. The elder Ashby was known to have possessed a violent temper on this ground chiefly acquitted the son. It is said that t!? mm which Ashby uaed Sunday morning is the same weapon with which he killed ni3 lather. WEATHER THEPAST WEtK I JQNES GETS 6 YtAnS Zlasj New Fhaxmacirta. Lake Toxaway, Special.
