"they will have to kill me to get me."
Beaching homo but a few minutes before
the arrival of the posse and police. Smith
told his father of the crime. When his
pursuers came In eight the young man
became highly nervous and ran from the
house to the rear of the barn. His father
remained In the house. A loaded double
barreled shotgun was leaning against one
side of tlje house, but was passed by
Smith, who evidently had determined not
to pot up a fight, but to end his Ufa as
soon as hp- was surrounded. When the
posse got within a few feet of him, calling
for his surrender, and the four officers
were reaching to' effect his capture, he
placed the revolver against his head and
blew out, his brains.
