Ashland Progress
Funeral services for Arthur Horn, who was shot and killed Monday at his home a 
few miles east of Talladega, were held at Spring Hill church Tuesday afternoon, 
conducted by Rev. S. J. Ingram, of Talladega. The slaying of Mr. Horn is said to 
have culminated in a controversy, between him and brother-in-law, Bernard 
Hollingsworth, who is charged with firing the fatal shot. The shooting is said 
to have occurred at the home of the two men, who had been farming together, upon 
their return from a squirrel hunt. After the killing Hollingsworth is said to 
have walked to Talladega and surrendered himself at the county jail, claiming 
self-defense. The slain man leaves a widow and three small children. He is also 
survived by his parents.
Mr. and Mrs. Charles M. Horn, several brothers and sisters. The family formerly 
resided in Clay County.
