It seems he and his father-in-law were\u00a0discussing the holly roller religion and Melton took\u00a0sides against him. and Melton&#8217;s sister-in-law, Mrs.<br \/>\nBROONE, became very much wrought up over the\u00a0stand Melton had taken in the argument, she grabbed a<br \/>\npistol and stepping between her father and Melton,\u00a0aimed the pistol direct at Melton and when the pistol\u00a0fired Melton fell dead. After the killing, Mrs. Broone\u00a0claims she did not intend to shoot, that she only meant\u00a0to bluff him. It is evident he pistol fired and Melton is\u00a0dead.\u00a0 Her story does not seem to have much color to\u00a0it.

To their union was born seven children, four boys and three girls. The two oldest girls and youngest boy have long since gone to Heaven. He leaves his wife, three sons, John and James [only the names of 2 sons are shown] and his youngest daughter, Mrs. Solone\u0015, to mourn their loss. He professed faith in Christ soon after the civil war, in a revival held by the Rev. A. B. WRIGHT&#8221;\u0015. He joined the M. E. Church and lived faithful until the Lord said it is enough and sent the Death Angel to call him to Heaven. Brother YORK would lead public prayer when called on. He was a quiet man, but a good one. He had his troubles. The Death Angel visited his home and called his children away. He had one of his legs amputated some twelve years ago, and about eight years ago his home was burned, but in all this, he, like Job of old, still held on to his integrity. We invoke the blessings of God upon his companion and children, trusting that they, like he, in the end of the journey of life shall be able to say, I am ready to go. [Written by H. A.
