    3. I know everyone already has this info but was not sure if this was the exact same write-up as what was written in Swainsboro. Sent it just in case The Atlanta Constitution April 24, 1910 Arraigned on the charge of murder as a result of the feud battle fought Sunday afternoon, April, 17, in this county, between the Collins and Lewis families, and in which A.S. Collins and his son, Wilson Collins, were killed. Joseph Lewis, and his son, George Hart, were today acquitted. Alma Lewis, who also was under arrest, but too badly wounded to be tried, will not be brought to trail. The widow of Joseph Collins was a witness. It is stated that during the battle she took her husband's gun away from him and that her husband and son were killed before her eyes.
