THE ATLANTA CONSTITUTION Atlanta Constitution, The (Atlanta, Georgia) > 1914 > March > 22 DEED OF MANIAC FARMER ONE OF AWFUL SAVAGERY; NOTE TELLS OF TROUBLES Swainsboro, Ga., March 21 Full particulars have been learned concerning the murder by J.A. Eubanks, of Oak Park, this county, of his wife, Martha Eubanks, and his small children, and the cool deliberate savagery of it all has cast a shadow over the entire section as nothing has ever done in the past. It is probably the most brutal and inhuman affair that has ever been perpetrated in this vicinity, and it is said that bystanders, watching the man let him lie where he fell for hours until death came. In the course of his maniacal fury, Eubanks used a different instrument for each life he took. With an ax he took his wife's life; the stab of a pocketknife ended the life of the oldest child, while his baby's head was severed from her body with a razor. His own life he ended with a pistol bullet. Eubanks has been married about 5 years, and two children were born to the union. His wife was Miss Martha Deal, of this county, a member of a high respected family. He had been to town the afternoon of the murder, remaining there until late in the night, and with some purchases he returned home. The morning after the murder, a number of pistol cartridges were found in the yard, where it seems his wife threw them in an effort to thwart any attempt he might make to shoot them. He had been in a bad humor with his wife for the past two days, and it was evidently preying on his mind when he went to bed that night. He lay down with his eldest daughter, three years old, in the shedroom, leaving his wife and baby to sleep in the main room of the house. DRESSES AT MIDNIGHT. Apparently about 12 o'clock he arose, put on his clothes and shoes. Entering his wife's room, he attacked her. She must have offered some resistance, as she had a scar on her forehead where she was hit with some blunt instrument, presumably a closed knife. Eubanks then went into the yard, got the ax, came back into his wife's room and, with all the staging of a savage drama, pulled her off the bed and chopped her head nearly off, returning to the backyard, where he replaced his ax. KILLS TWO CHILDREN He then returned to the room, and while the 1 year old infant was sleeping on the bed, with its face upward, he stabbed it in the center of its forehead with his pocketknife, the wound resulting in the instant death to the child. With seeming complacence he crossed to the shed room, where lay his 3 year old daughter asleep. Securing his razor this time, he held her head backward and with the exception of a small skin on the back of her neck, severed her head from her body. Leaving her where he found her, he returned to the main room, where he tore up everything in the room, even taking the cotton from the mattresses and piling them of top of the wife and baby, whom he had placed in the center of the floor, with the obvious intention of firing the house. FIRES OUTHOUSES. Eubanks then went to the cotton house and a barn, a short distance from the dwelling, and fired both of them, and holding a torch in his hand he started to return to the house. An old negro man, who was interviewed this morning, siad that at this time, he saw the fire and saw a torch starting toward the house. The negro said that he had heard screams at the Eubanks home on previous occasions, and when he saw the house afire, he got his shotgun and fired one shot. Evidently Eubanks must have heard this shot, as he did not fire his dwelling then. Instead of that he went to the house of a neighbor named Page, and called Page's son out for a conversation. In one hand Eubanks carried a 44-caliber pistol, in the other he carried a saw and some fishing tackle, which he requested that Page send to his brother, saying that they belonged to him and he wanted his brother to have them. Young Page and Eubanks then went out to the cotton house of the Page home, where he told him the whole story, and requested Page to go into the house and get his father as he, Eubanks, wanted to talk to him a little. Page hastened to the house, but when he reached the door he turned just in time to see Eubanks send a bullet through his head. The following note was found on the front gate post of the Eubanks home, wriiten by Eubanks: "To whom it may concern: This is to notify you that I have lived in trouble long enough. This woman is hell, and a heap of it. Marth, don't advise no one else to do wrong." It is supposed that "Marth" referred to in the note is his mother-in-law.

Does anyone know of a Clinton Fields (or similar first name) maybe born ca 1890-1900? Someone sent me a photo and it's hard for us to make out the first name written on the back. I can't find anything close except for Clifford - but it really looks like it has an "int" in the middle of the name. The photo was taken ca 1918 and the men in it look like young adults.

Does anyone have info such as the dates of birth/death burial, etc. on the children from John W. Lamb's marriages? I'm listing info on Annie Cannady Covenah who was his first wife. Louis Patrick, who was raised by Annie's parents, Daniel Madison and Sallie Bishop Cannady. gave me most of the info. Dawn Cannady has been working with me re Lamb info. I sent off for the marriage license info. His second marriage was to Ola Thelma Coleman. Her first husband was John R. Anderson. Additions and corrections appreciated.

COVENNAH: Burial: Greenway Fields Cemetery, Emanuel Co Ga The Atlanta Constitution March 11, 1911 (Article found by Dawn Williams) FARMER FATALLY HURT IN PECULIAR ACCIDENT Swainsboro, Ga. March 9 Frank Covena, a well known farmer of this county, came near losing his life in an accident this morning. Covena was building a wire fence and in stretching the wire in some manner the stretcher broke and an iron clamp flew up and struck Mr. Covena behind the ear. He was knocked senseless and for a time was thought to be dead. Physicians from this city were rushed out and report that while Covena is still living, his life is hanging by a thread. To make the accident doubly sad is the fact that he was married only one month ago. He is a nephew of Sheriff T.A. Fields and is a young man highly esteemed. SWAINSBORO FOREST BLADE 03/16/1911 (Obit provied by Mary Covenah) Mr. Frank Covena, living on Mr. J.D. Smith's place, about three and a half miles from Swainsboro, was almost instantly killed by a fence clamp, which slipped off the end of the wire last Thursday, striking him on the right side of the head and crushing in his skull. Death followed within about twenty-eight hours after he received the blow. Mr. Covena leaves a wife, having been married only two months. Besides his wife, he leaves his father, two brothers and four sisters to mourn his death. Frank had started life with all in his favor, and it is sad to see a life so full of promise taken so suddenly but the All wise Father knows best. He was buried at the family burying ground near Smithton last Saturday. Mrs. Covena was Miss Annie Canady before her marriage. Child of ANNIE CANNADY and FRANK COVENNAH is: i.
