ZANESVILLE,
Jan. 6.—Dr. John H. Williams, 60, a physician of Summerfield, Noble county, died early today from a self-inflicted bullet
wound a few hours after he had shot and killed his wife, Maude Williams,
50.
The shooting followed a quarrel in the Williams home during which a
violent struggle evidently occurred. Furniture was broken and the
downstairs rooms were in disorder. The motive is unknown.
When
Holly Williams, 11 year old son returned home from school late yesterday,
he found his mother dead. The father, who was in an upstairs room, turned
the gun on himself when he heard the boy enter the house. Mrs. Williams
was the mother of seven children by a former marriage. She was Dr.
Williams' second wife. They have one son.
