From the moment the first re- poti aas received on into this week there wero many s:oideB oone^ip«>dhei«,«{b^..lhe .whep, and Uie fehiy. Howwer, until the murderer is returned to this state and Ohooacs to tell the complete story . . t certain factors will ecntinuG to remain a niystcty. Local ofllcera, ofllecra of David son County, aJid Uie state Bureau of mveatlgatlon ore at work op this ciihne and by the time the case Is tried will no doubt have established somo facts to sub s', antlate some theories. At this time, the best we can reconstruct the orbno Is as follows: Mr. Grant, who lived alone at his home on Cherry street In MSacksvltle since the death of his wife In Jastuary, 1958. usually visited a dai^lftor. Mrs. Jolm Graham WUHard. in Winston- Salent each week. Last Tuesday ul^t (July 27) he called her to say he would not be there this week because "I want to u*atoh the Republican ConvenlUon on tel evision." . _ • Ihursday nftcmoon he went to a Salifibuiy osteopaUi for a uea:^ ment nf fhn jfjImiiHW dlJorder with which he was alBtoted. At this point, according to tile in- formbUon gained by the SBt and loosl ofilccrs. his travel becomes vague. A Moeksvtlle service station operator first reported that ho filled his eor up wWh gasoline about 4 p.m. on Thursday. How ever, ^Jter (his scriticc titatlon opvrolor Una not sure as to U'hotdier it was Wednesday or Thursday. The ofllccM's are In- ollncd to think tliat it was Wed nesday. I Alan Confesses The nc)(t report on Clarence, Beuha Grant came Saturday^ morning when police of Jackson* vlllc. na., contacted Sheriff Ben' y Royles and inromicd him Uiat: a man they had in custody had; confessed to Icllllng Mr. Grant and dumping his body in o com- Hvld near Greensboro. , Tlic confessed killer was AlbrH Josi-j>h VftUlancouta. age IB, of Norh Bllloi'cla.

He said he also hit Gi-ant with the whisky bottle. Early Saturday afternoon the search got underway for Mr. Grant's body. Officers called Jack* bonViUe, Fla. and Valllancourt was brought to the telephone and gave a more detailed description of the area Ip which he "dumped the body."
