While out hunting one day his son Ed stationed himself in a tree for the purpose of watching for game, when a lady hunter approached and observed him in the tree and thinking he was a wild cat, fired a shot at him which pierced his heart. Mr. Jones brought his son home for interment in the Poarch cemetery. A very sad affair. --------------------------------------------------- Return to Beckham County Archives: http://www.usgwarchives.net/ok/beckham/beckham.html
