Fort Worth, Tex., March 16.—
Miss Genevieve Snead, of Dallas,
23 years of age, was shot and in-
stantly killed at noon today in the
house at 401 Hast Bluff street and
immediately thereafter Sheriff John
G. Swafford, of Qraubury, Hood
county, 38 years of age, seut a bul-
let from the same weapon through
his brain. The young woman fell
backward upon a bed and the man
sank to the lloor not three feet dis-
tance and expired. The door was
locked on the inside and both were
>dead when found.
Justice Maben held the inquest
and pronounced the girl’s death
due to bullet wounds inflicted by
Swafford and the man’s death due
I to a wound self inflicted,
j Last July when the State Sher-
iff’s Association met in this city,
Sheriff Swafford attended the meet
ing and while here made Miss
Snead’s acquaintance. Later he.
purchased a live-room cottage at
701 Hemphill street, in which Miss
Snead and her mother lived. A
horse and buggy were also pur-
chased, which were cared for by a
local stable aud left at Miss Snead’s
disposal. The sheriff was a frequent
visitor at the Snead home and pre
sented the young woman 'with
much flue clothing and diamonds.
About six weeks ago Mrs. Snead
went to live in Dallas, while Miss
Snead procured rooms at the house
where Monday’s tragedy was en-
acted.
! The dead woman was of medium
statue, a blonde, aud an exceed-
ingly neat dresser. She was about
23 years of age and had been a res-

several months in the W. C. Strip-
ling department store and later at-
tended the Fort Worth Business

Sheriff Swafford was a magnifi-
cent specimen of physical man-
hood, about 38 years of age, and
was one of the most popular sher-
iffs \n the State. He was serving
his second term as sheriff of Hood
county, having been elected for
the second time last November.
He had previously- lm> % 4»piVf
sheriff and was ever a fearless and
efficient officer, and had the repu-
tation of being a dead shot with a
revolver.
He was reared in Hood county,
where his mother still resides, his
father, a Methodist minister, hav-
ing died but a few months ago. He
had a wife and one daughter, about
16 years old. His daughter was
attending school at Fort Worth at
St, Ignatius academy.
