The Pike County Journal March 2, 1928

Albert Bethune killed a man by the name of H.W. Turner last Friday night about 
8 o’clock on the public road between Hollonville and Williamson near the 
Anderson store.

Bethune lives with Mr. Quick about a mile from Hollonville but Turner’s home 
was in Atlanta. Bethune says that he, in company with Henry Irvin, was taking 
Turner to Griffin from which place Turner was to go to Atlanta. He says Turner 
was drinking and assaulted him with a knife and that he shot him in self 
defense. He and Irvin carried Turner to the hospital in Griffin and then 
Bethune came to Zebulon and surrendered to Sheriff D.S. Allen. Bethune is 
married and has one child. He is 31 years of age.
