The history of the Belle-Meade
development is rather interesting
and unique. Starting ovor twenty
years ago, it has passed through
many stages, of disappointment
and success. From a financial
standpoint, it has probably meant
more headaches to the promoters
than profit, but out of this has
grown Waynesville's best assel
from a tourist standpoint, namely,
The Waynesville Country Club.

2'M. As a result they have been
charged with assault with cleanly
weapons with intent to kill and
with armed rubbery.
Andy Parker, who appeared to
be the most seriously wounded of
the three, operates a taxi stand
at the Weeping Willow and re
ceived his wound while seeking
refuge behind a large safe. Wit-ne.-M's
clcelaiecl that he did not
participate in the shooting.
Parker and Andy Case were
brought to the offices of Drs. Root,
and Chailes Owen here immedi
ately after the shooting, and were
t:i v en medical 'attention before
being rushed to the hospital. Case
was put under arrest by Chief nl
Pulice W. N. Stroupe and Officer
J. K. Pickens.
Jack Ca.se and Oscar Case were
apprehended by Chief Stroupe
and Oflicer Robert Payne about
: ::() a.m., at the Whiteway taxi
-land i.n Park street, where they
were attempting to call a doctor
I.n Jack Case. Deputy sheriffs
Wade McDaniels and John Kerly
answered Chief Stiuupe's call to
the county sheriff's office and as
sisted in the investigation.
According to an account of the
gun battle, given to police by Ott
Ruliiiisoii, proprietor of the Weep
ing Willow, the three Case bioth
ei. s came into Ins cafe at about
1 r:if last nitiht and demanded that
beer be solved to them. Miss
.elm a ISroyvn, a wailiess, told
them that it was after legal hours
for selling bee-r and served them
with Coffee.
They then renewed their de
mand lor beer, Robinson related,
and started using foul language
in the presence' of Miss 111 own
anil Mi,s Irene llensley, another
Willi ;;-. (Robinson explained
l.i'ie that the Cases had threaten
ed trouble two nights ago when
they had been refused beer aftei
legal hours, and that he had re-lu.-ccl
to sell llieni beer on one oc
casion during the day yesterday.)
The three brothers then if 1 1
ihe cafe, Robi n.-on continued, and
i.lmost immediately Andy Cii.se
returned with a .22 calibre rifle
which he jammed against Robin
son as he stood ill the doorway.
Robinson knocked the gun up as
it discharged and with the aid id
by. tenders he w rested the gun
In. m Ca e. At that point Andy
Case is said to have engaged in
a brief listiclilf engagement with
another bystander. When this was
broken up Case left briefly and
returned with his brothers, all of
them armed with rifles, pistols
and shotguns.
Robinson said they started fir
ing as they got to the gasoline
pumps m 1 1 out of his establish
ment, and continued on into the'
building firing at everybody in
sight and reducing the place to
a shambles.
At this point Robinson said he
got his pistol, a .38 Special, to
return the fire but that it jammed
when he attempted to use it and
that he handed it to Hubert Young,
an employee of the Dickerson
Construction Co., who was pres
ent, and went to get a shotgun,
with which he continued to give
battle.
In the meanwhile the Cases
started shooting at Young, and ac
cording o his account he cleared
the gun Robinson had handed him
and emptied it at them. He said
that he "believed he got one of
them".
At one time during the shooting
the Cases wei e said to have gain
ed complete control of the cafe
and it was then that they were
alleged to have rifled the contents
of the two cash registers. After
their arrest some money was
found on their persons and soma
cheeks which Chief Stroupe was
last night trying to identify as
having come from the registers.

Among the noted scholars who
have delivered addresses from the
auditorium platform was the great
' Oriental scholar, Dr. Eddy Asirva
tliam from Madras, India, wearing
I the garments of his country and
speaking with conviction on the
contrast between the Christian re
ligion and the Hindu and Moham-
e-rs stepped u Trailways bus that
was passing on the highway in
an attempt to make a getaway,
but that the driver refused to
admit them.
Jack Case and Oscar Case fled
from the scene and were arrest
ed alter a two and one-half hour
search by olficers, when they
were forced to seek medical aid
lor the wounded Jack Case. Andy
Case, who witnesses declared was
the ringleader of all the trouble,
was discovered lying badly
wounded on a creek bank across
the highway I rum the service sta
tion. He was brought to town
by G. 13. Pressley and taken to
the doctor's olfice where lie was
arrested and taken to the police
station for booking.
Robinson received his scalp
wound when he was hit on the
head, according to his account, by
a heavy teacup wielded by Oscar
Case.
There were several witnesses to
the afliay who were eating at the
call- when the trouble started. All
of them took advantage of what
ever cover they could find to
avoid the flying bullets.
The two waitresses fled to the
back room ol the cafe and when
hots started entering this room
Miss lirown took cover under a
bed and Mis., llensley jumped
throueh a window and ran.
Other witnesses Included Guy
CI. ut.. William F. Warren, Clyde
Dexter and Glenn Ward, all of
whom had stopped in to eat;
.Andy Parker, who was wounded;
Howard Sanford, who was receiv
ing" auto service; and Hubert
Young, who returned the fire of
the Case brothers.
Chief Slrowpe expressed the
opinion that none of the Case
brothers were drunk, but that
they may have had some beer to
di ink. The three wounded men
were transported to the hospital
by the ambulance service of the
Wells Funeral Home in three
separate- trips, Parker first, Andy
Case next, and then Jack Case
when he was appiehended later.
