LINCOLN COUNTY MAN SLAIN IN TENNESSEE
The arrival here last Tuesday of the body of William Clymer, for burial at his former home at Highland, disclosed news of a terrible tragedy which was enacted on the Fourth of July at Cupp, Tennessee, a mining town near Harriman and where a number of Kentuckians are employed. Clymer had been shot and almost instantly killed by a miner, also from Kentucky George Glancey by name, whose body was brought to East Bernstadt, Laurel county, his former home, for burial, in an express car along side that of Clymer. Thompson (?) was shot and killed by Clymer's sixteen-year-old son, immediately after he had slain the elder Clymer.
It appears that Clymer, who was a deputy sheriff of his county in Tennessee, and a man of considerable prominence there, gave a big picnic on the Fourth of July which was largely attended. Glancey was present and desired to dance with Clymer's daughter Minnie who refused to have anything to do with him. It is said that Glancey threatened to kill her if she would not dance with him, and when Clymer heard of the man's threats, he went to him about it to straighten matters out. Glancey renewed his threat to Clymer, it is said, whereupon Clymer drew his gun and threatened to kill Glancey. The latter it is said to have begged piteously for his life, declaring that he was not armed, and begging for a chance.
Clymer, who was a game man, handed his weapon to a bystander and told Glancey that they would fight it out, fist and skull, in the good old fashioned way. No sooner however, had Clymer disarmed himself that Glancey drew a couple of pistols out of his shirt bosom and shot Clymer dead almost in his tracks. He emptied both revolvers into Clymer's body and then started to run. Earnest, the young son of Clymer who was standing near, immediately took his father's pistol, and running after Glancey shot him through the head and he died instantly. The young man was apprehended by other authorities but released and accompanied his father's remains here for burial.
The burial took place in the Highland cemetery after a prayer by C. M. Young. His aged mother Mrs. Jane Clymer, of Silver Creek, came to attend the funeral, and other friends were present to pay the last rites. Clymer left Lincoln county about 10 or 12 years ago, but was known to a great many who still live in the Highland section. His sister is the wife of Craig Baugh.

He could not speak English much and an interpreter had to be sworn, but the old man evidently understood the judge's decision by the ferocity in which he answered "No" to the question whether he did or not.
