County Attorney J H Falloon says Mrs. Williamson was hysterical but did not place her under arrest. She protested that she did not mean to slay her husband, but struck in self-defense. The sharp edge of the ax hit him on the left side of the head opening a deep gash and fracturing the skull. He died almost instantly. Witnesses say he was killed as he moved toward his wife to beat her brains out with a stick of firewood. Glenn Williamson, 20, a son, and George Davis, who lives across the street, witnessed the tragedy. Williamson arose about 10 a.m. Mrs. Williamson was baking a cake. He began throwing eggs, then the baking powder can and cooking utensils out of the house and then chased her outside. Grabbing a jagged piece of wood, he pursued her into the garage. Finally she grabbed the ax and it's assumed she swings the ax. "I've been running from you an hour, " the county attorney quoted her as saying. "I'm not going to run anymore." As Williamson closed in, she swung the ax. Davis told the prosecutor, "I saw the entire affair and heard Doc say he was going to beat her brains out." Officers were told that Glenn made an attempt to get between his mother and father and separate them just before the tragedy, but was too far away at the time to prevent it. "I don't know yet what I am going to do about the killing," Falloon said this evening. "Mrs. Williamson was in no condition to make a statement. I will talk to her later."
