This is the 4th murder in ten months, and we hope the last, for our sister county has always borne the reputation of being law abiding. The last tragedy occurred on Saturday evening, about three miles west of Monroe, McKee SECREST shot and killed Washington HELMS. SECREST was running a saw mill, and has had HELMS in his employ for several years. He had authorized HELMS to take up a certain amount on his credit at a store in Monroe. On Saturday, both were in town, and SECREST claiming that HELMS had over gone his limit, and owed him an account besides, a dispute arose between them about the accounts… That evening late, HELMS went over to SECREST’S house, it is said, to demand settlement. He entered the house, but was ordered out by SECREST. He went out and was followed by Mr. ALEXANDER, father-in-law to SECREST. A quarrel must have arisen between these two, for HELMS then knocked ALEXANDER down. SECREST’S friends say that his wife went out and HELMS slapped her, then he, SECREST, went out and HELMS struck him also, whereupon SECREST drew his pistol and shot him in the left side. The ball must have struck the heart, for HELMS fell dead almost immediately, only having time to utter one word, namely to say good by to his wife. SECREST, who is a brother of the unfortunate Hoke SECREST, is now in jail awaiting his trial… Thursday, September 1, 1881 ANSON TIMES (Wadesboro, Anson Co., NC) Washington HELMS was killed by McKee SECREST… Thursday, October 20, 1881 ANSON TIMES (Wadesboro, Anson Co., NC) -The Monroe Express says: The Grand Jury has found true bills for murder against S. McKey SECREST
