C. Glisson. The young man came home drunk and was remonstrated with(sic) by his father. Becoming enraged about his father's talk to him, the old gentleman retired to his room and locked the door. Procuring a shotgun, George came back looking for his father, and finding the door locked, broke it open and fired once, hitting his father in the stomach, wounding him so badly that he died in about an hour. Realizing what he had done, the young man fled from the house. He was pursued by his younger brother, John, who fired at him, wounding him in the arm. George has not yet been arrested and when last heard from was at W. C. Parrish's, near his home.
