I Fred Simmons Granted Bail.
Hernando, Miss., June 9.—
Chancellor J. G. McGowen, after
hearing the evidence today in
the case of the State against C.
E- Simmons, F. S Simmons and
Mrs. W. L. Bates, charged with
killing C. S. Rayburn near
Horn Lake about three weeks
ago, ordered C. E. Simmohs re
manded to jail without bond,
but allowed bail in the cases a
gainst F. S. Simmons and Mrs.
W. L Bates, the bond of the for
mer being fixed at $1,000 and
the latter $250. Mrs- Bates se
cured bondsmen and was releas
ed this afternoon.
The killing grew out-rf a diffi
culty between the Ray
burn’s, who were tenants on
Mrs. Bates’ farm near Horn
Lake, and the Simmons broth
ers and Mrs. Bates, who is a
sister of the Simmons’.
The Simmons reside in Mem
phis, but one of them, F. S- Sim
mons, had been living in the
house with the Rayburns on the
Bates farm- He and Rayburn
had some trouble about some
pigeons and a cow that Simmons
wanted to keep on the premises.
Rayburn objected to this, claim
ing that he was the lessee and
these things were not contem
piatea at tne time tne lease was
made. Matters became worse,
and it was decided by Mrs. Bates
to move her brother back to
Memphis and avert further
trouble. About three weeks ago
Mrs. Bates and her two broth
ers, F. S. Simmons and C. E.
Simm,ons, came out from Mem
phis in an automobile, with the
intention, it is claimed by them,
to move F. S. Simmons’ things
away from the Rayburn place
and back to Memphis with them.
A difficulty arose, which resulted
in the killing of Rayburn by C
E- Simmons. After Rayburn
was shot down in his own house
Mrs. Rayburn was prevented
from going to him by F. S. Sim
mons, who stood between them
and according to Mrs. Rayburn’s
statements, she was kicked anc
bruised severely by Simmons
Simmons claimled that Rayburr
fell across His gun, and for that
Reason he did not want the bodj
disturbed till witnesses coul<
get there to substantiate hii
statement, bearing out his clain
that he fired in self-defense.
Aifter the killing the Simmon
brothers were arrested by Dep
uty Sheriff A. S. Campbell ant
brought to Hernando and placet
in jail- * No attempt was made b;
them to get away after the kill
- ing, though the killing occurred
• near the Tennessee state line,
i Mrs. Bates was not arrested un
. til today when she appeared
here at the trial- The case came
up on a habeas corpus petition
■ and was tried before Chancellor
J. G- McGowen. The defendants
were represented by Attorney;
R. E. L. Morgan.
Fred Simmons is well known
here and was generally liked.
He served as a deputy sheriff
and made a good officer. He was
regarded as a young man of good |
| character and it is hard for his
friends here to believe that he
was at fault in this tragedy. Z.
B. Reid tried to reach him by
telephone Friday, but was never
able to secure him.
