NORTH CAROLINA MOCKSVILLE ENTERPRISE, Friday, July 25, 1947 - Page 1 76-YEAR-OLD DAVIE MAN KILLS 50-YEAR-OLD WIFE AND HIMSELF Mr. and Mrs. John Williams In what was attributed to a I Jealous nature, John Williams, 76, who lived near Smith Orove j murdered hU wife and then kill ed himself last Tuesday morning about 8 o'clock. He and his wife, the former Mrs. John Bedding, were mar ried January 15, 1947. She was 50 years old. Williams used a 12-guage double-barreled shotgun, firing one load Into the right temple of his wife's head which blew away most of the right side of her head. He then re-loaded the gun and shot himself in the head, using a piece of wood to pull the trigger. , Dr. O. V. Oreene, county cor oner, examined the scene with SherifT Paul Foster and deputies and declared that no Inquest was necessary. "It was an obvious case of murder and suicide." Dr. Greene stated. Mr. and Mrs. Williams lived In one side of a home known as the old BUI Jorvls home near Smith Orove. The other side of the home was occupied by Mrs. Jarvis and a Mrs. Brent with several children. The Brent's were said to be relatives of Mrs. Jorvls and recently moved there to keep her company. Occupants of the home stated that the Williams couple had had an argument on Monday prior to the shooting, he having said that 'Ho was going to the peni tentiary but that he would have something to go for." It was al so said that he refused to allow his wife to mingle with other women In the home. A short time ago, It was asserted, he paid bur ial Insurance well In advance for his wife and himself. Sheriff Foster said that "ap- 1 parontly he was Just of a Jeal- lous nature—but there were no grounds for It." The morning of the tragedy the couple, however, appeared to be on the best of terms. They had several kittens which they gave milk and bread in the yard, commenting while they were drinking. Mrs. Williams was sweeping the home, had Just completed the house and was at the back door sweeping, opening the screen when her husband flred apparently from only a few feet away while standing In the yard. She had the broom in her hand and several shot penetrated the handle. ' Mrs. Williams married John Seeding In 1942 and re-marrled Mr. Williams a week or so after her first husband's death, It was said.
