Father and Son bound to Court in killing case.
J carson Hannah bled to death when artery in thigh is severed.
Marion Messer and son, Jarvis Messer was bound over to superier court under bonds of six thousand and one thousand, after a hearing before Magistrate C. B. Atkinson Tuesday afternoon, in the death of J. Carson Hannah, of Cove Creek, 64, who died Saturday afternoon within five minutes after a knife had cut an artery in his thigh.
Evidence presented at the hearing, showed that Medford Hannah, son of the deceased, was drinking heavily, and during the afternoon had become enraged at Marion Messer, who witnesses said was sober.
Witnesses further testified that the deceased was also under the influence of Liquor.
The evidence showed that Medford Hannah began to tussle with Jarvis Messer, and that the deceased went in to help his son, and when he did, Carson Hannah with knife drawn went behind the elder Messer and pulled him from the two scrapping young men.
The two elder men fell, with Messer on top. The deceased had an open knife in his hand when he fell. Messer got off the thrown man, who lay bleeding profusely, and died within five minutes.
Evidence showed that neither one of the Messer men were armed.
The two Messers remained on the scene untill Sheriff R.V. Welch arrived to make an investigation and arrests. Both men gave bond after Tuesday's hearing.
Funeral services were held for Mr. Hannah on Monday afternoon at two O'clock at his home on Cove Creek, with the Rev. Mr. Roten officiating. Burial was in the Bradley's Cemetery.
