Scenes in Slaying of West Texas Banker Near Seymour
(two pictures)
The country road where Horace E. Nichols, 40, Seymour, Texas, banker, was shot to death is shown at the left and his bereaved wife, entering an automobile after Nichols' funeral services, is pictured right. Nichols, who has two children, allegedly was parked in the country lane with Miss Willie Mae Couch, 19, when some one stopped, fired at Nichols and drove away. He staggered out of the car and fell dead. Miss Ruby Britain, 40, is charged with his murder after officers found her driving near the scene of the tragedy, on the night of the shooting.
