The boy was not certain whether the shot was fired when his father was asleep or not. At th-' first shot (irubb leaped to his feet and went towart his wife, who find twice m.re and he fell dintd. MLw Beulah f irubb said that when her father became boister ous and abusive she and Iv-r sis ter went to their room. Sl,e could hear her mother's .sxtwuius and the sound of blows. After a time Grubb called his daughters, ttollin? them that he was going to kill their mother, his son Zeb and then he was 'oirvg to kill Lester Davis, Mrs. 4irubb's brotlivr. When MLs.s lieubdi went down she found her moth er's face was covered with blood iuwl bbxtcl was oozim from lier shm-s. S1r' was barely able to stand up and was Wg-ging- pit-e-ously for mercy. Her father con timied to beat her mother over the head, using a pistol, whii-h he held throughout the whole af fair, ami threatening death to the whole family. Finally, after he had tired of beating Mrs. (irubb, he lay down on the daven H)rt and sahl he would rest awhile. The last thing he said before goinr to ule.-p was that he would kill his wife us soon as he got up. He was asWp in a minute or two. Several min utes elapsed, during which Mrs. Grubb sent her son Zeb to th kitchen for her pistol and crept 1 out of the room, going to her; own room.
