Come to be ready for great activities Sunday June 6 at 11:30 a.m to 5:00 p.m EDT at the Fallsburg Park in Lawrence County. [Because we have to pay for the meeting place and maintaining the Family Com site we are charging $2.00 per person for Registration. There will be limited freebies!] We will be honoring Bob Polley by presenting his widow with the first CD we have made of the Area. And there are a few items of business to take care of but mostly this is a working meeting without a big to-do about food or entertainment. We entertain ourselves by meeting and sharing our genealogy materials. Many have to have assistance in unloading all they bring. Amazing sight! Lawrence County ancestors and descendants have either come from or migrated to surrounding counties. Who knows how many cousins you will find. It's a great place to meet and learn. I hope to see you there! We are giving out the! CD to those who have shared their ged.com in the making of it. A few are bringing laptops and we hope to be able to have persons to show how to do several things to make Research easier for everyone. I listed my surnames but among those attending you can expect to find many many more! YOU ARE WELCOME AND I HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE.

Though a verdict may be forthcoming, those interested in the case anticipate a lengthy deliberation on the part of the jury before a ver- dict is agreed upon. If agreement is possible. In presenting it's case the Common- wealth offered proof to the effect that Hall fired upon Boyd without warn- ing, while the young man was attend- ing a party at the home of a neigh- bor. Boyd died almost instantly from a shotgun wound in the body. It was contended by the Commonwealth that enmity entertained by the de- fendant toward Edgar Boyd and his father, Jerry Boyd, led to the premedi- tated murder. The defense produced evidence, in substantiation of the plea of self-de- fense, that Hall fired only after he himself had been fired upon. It was brought out by the defense that Hall was shot through the hand and arm, and the defendant testified that he fired at Boyd after revolver shots had been fired at him outside the house, where the party had been held. A main issue of the trial was pre- sented in efforts of both the prosecu- tion and defense to establish whether the shotgun or the revolver had been fired first. Evidence evoked on this angle of the case was widely variant.

Greenbury Hall, 47 years old, of Harold, this county, eight hours later shot and fatally wounded Edgar Boyd,17, a neighbor, and with- in 24 hours after he had been dis- missed from the jail here was again jailed, this time facing a murder charge. Within two hours of his second im- prisonment here he was indicted on a charge of wilful murder by a special Grand Jury impaneled by Circuit Judge. C.B.Wheeler after the adjournment of the extended September term of the Floyd circuit court. Refused bond, he was remanded to jail. According to evidence produced be- fore the grand jury Saturday after- noon and also taken by County Attorn- ney Joe P. Tackett Sunday in the vi- olnity of the killing, Hall, after pro- curing a shotgun, went to the home of Johnny Hall, where young Boyd was attending a praty, and when within a few feet of Boyd fired the contents of the weapon into Boyd's side. As the wounded man fell, it is said, he fired three shots at Hall, two of which took effect, one bullet striking the slayer in the forearm and another in the fingers. Boyd lived 45 minutes after being shot and before dying made a statement as to the circum- stances urrounding the affair. Sheriff B. L. Sturgill here was noti- fied of the killing Saturday morning at 1 o'clock by telephone and he and Deputy Sheriff M. T. Stumbo left im- mediately for the scene of the shoot- ing. There they were joined by three other deputies, Joe Sturgill, Basil Hamilton and Walker Hall. After searching Hall's home and la- ter trailing the fugitive to the bed of Big Mud Creek, Sheriff Sturgill wired to Huntington for bloodhounds. The dogs arrived Saturday morning and immediately took up Hall's trail, a maze of tracks along the creek bed and adjoining lowland. Though the hounds had not actually sighted Hall, they were circling about his hiding place where he was hidden in the willows along the banks of the creek. He surrendered soon afterward with- out show of resistance, asking only for protection. The capture was made at 1 o'clock Saturday afternoon, and at 2:30 he was in jail here. The following men, empaneled as grand jurors shortly after Hall's ar- rival, here, returned the indictment charging wilful murder: N. Y. Bea- vers, Tom Dingus, Lee Harris, E. B. Brown, Jack Miller, John Banks, J. C. Hopkins, Andy Frasure, Kell Spradlin, B. F. Combs, W. B. Boyd, foreman, W. P. Mayo. The burial was made. Surviving are the ill feeling existing for some time be- tween Greenbury Hall and J. J. Boyd, father of the slain youth. Hall was held in jail here under evidence pro- duced by the Elder Boyd who sought to place Hall under a peace bond. Besides his parents, the victim is survived by a brother and several sis- ters. Funeral Services were conducted Sunday afternoon and burial was made in the Hamilton Cemetery near Har- old.
