Ashland Progress
A serious shooting affair occurred near Quenelda Graphite mines last Saturday 
night as a result of which one man is dead and another wounded. Marvin Gravett 
was shot through the abdomen, the ball passing entirely through his body from 
front to rear. He died on Monday and was buried at Antioch on Tuesday. F. B. 
Munroe received several shotgun wounds in the legs. The tragic occurrence is 
said to have taken place on the road from the schoolhouse where a box supper was 
held that night, but reports conflict as to the circumstances and details of the 
trouble. Mr. Munroe, who was wounded, and Northen Lakey, a cousin or the dead 
man, have been taken into custody by the sheriff and will have a preliminary 
trial right soon. Gravett was about thirty years of age and leaves a wife and 
three children.
