The tragedy is thought to have grown out of trouble between the two a few days before. McDade and wife are said to have separated and she had been staying at the Terry Home. Friday evening, she and Mr. and Mrs. Terry had gone to the McDade home to secure her clothes as McDade was preparing to have an auction sale the following day and dispose of all their furniture and household goods. Upon arriving, they claim they found the house locked and were preparing to enter through a window, when McDade came up. The shooting occurred after angry words had passed between the two. Only one shot was fired from a shot gun loaded with buck shot, the entire load struck Terry, killing him instantly. At the preliminary hearting before Justice C.P. Roebuck here yesterday, McDade, who surrendered to Sheriff C.R. Morrison immediately after the shooting, was held for the grand jury in December without bond. He entered a plea of self-defense, and said that he fired on Terry only after Terry threatened his life. Geo. F. Brown, McDade's attorney, announced that an effort to obtain bond for his client would be made through habeas corpus proceedings before Circuit Judge Patrick Henry. Funeral services for Terry were held at Greenwood cemetery here Monday morning conducted by the Rev. A.A. Brown. Burial was in the family lot at Greenwood. He is survived by his wife; four sons, Marvin, Robert, Calvin, and Virgil Terry, all of Rison; three daughters, Mrs. Vadia Rauls, and Mrs. Gus Neely of Herbine, and Mrs. Garrett Cash of Rison; five brothers, Lewis of Little Rock; W.T. and Marvin of St. Louis, Bert who is in the U.S. Navy and W.J. Terry of Rison; three sisters, Mrs. V.B. Chism of Marshall Texas; Mrs. C.O. Lee of Lelan, Mississippi and Mrs. B.T. Cash of Rison.
