| 252 | Deadly Came Fatal to Boy 15-Year Old Plays 'Russian Roullette' FORSYTH, May 8 (Special) - A game of "Russian roulette" with a .22 pistol proved fatal to an [sic] 15-year-old boy here today. Oliver May, son of Mr. and Mrs. Perry May of near Rockaway Beach, died instantly from a chest gunshot wound, apparently self-inflicted, about 1:30 p.m. at Ozark Beach, near Powersite Dam on White River. According to Waller Cobb of Forsyth Funeral Home, where the body was taken, young May was playing a deadly game with Rex Johnson, a companion about the same age. In "Russian roulette" a cartridge is placed in an empty pistol chamber and the chamber is spun. Then the player points the weapon at himself and pulls the trigger. Cohb said the victim, who apparently hadn't owned the pistol more than few hours, already had pulled the trigger once without incident before the fatal shot came. The shooting occurred on the beach near the water, he said, and few people were nearby at the time. Taney County Sheriff Theron Gideon and State Trooper Wayne Ferguson investigated. Cobb said he hasn't been notified whether an inquest will be called. Funeral arrangements are incomplete. | May, Oliver Howard (I1688)

So, she said. May himself decided to leave and started for the door with his .22. She said that she and Pulley followed him toward the door and that he yelled "Stand bark or I'll shoot" and that he did then shoot. Jesse Goodall's testimony was similar to that of Mrs. Atkins but Paul Goodall testified that he left when he was asked to do so.

| 286 | Mrs. Mattie Yates Died Yesterday Mother of H. L. and L. C. Yates Had Lived Here Half a Century Funeral Christmas Afternoon at Wilson Funeral Home Once again a Christmas season has been saddened by a death in this community; this time by the passing late yesterday of Mrs. Mattie E. Yates, 86, at her home where she had lain seriously ill three weeks. Her funeral will be held at 2:30 oclock tomorrow afternoon, Christmas day, at the Wilson Funeral home, conducted by the Rev. A. C. Klamm, Presbyterian pastor, and burial will be in the King City cemetery. For a quarter of a century people had thought of Mrs. Yates as "a frail old lady," and yet she remained surprisingly active of mind and body most of the time. Each of the last seven winters brought serious illness to her, but each time she had managed somehow to recover. Fifty years a widow, Mrs. Yates had lived in King City fifty-three years. Her maiden name was Mattie Emmerson and she was born March 29, 1857, in Kentucky. She married John Lester [sic] Yates, an early-day school teacher in Andrew county. They lived at Flag Springs several years and there their four children were born, Virgil E. Yates, who died in 1927 at Bethany; Herschel L. Yates, assistant postmaster here; Leland C. Yates, manager of the Rexall store here, and a daughter who died in infancy. The family moved here from Flag Springs in 1889. Mr. Yates died four years later, and Mrs. Yates continued to make a home for her three sons until they moved out into homes of their own. Since then she had maintained a home for herself, living alone a good deal of the time. She was employed many years as a clerk in the Millan & Wagers Merc. Co. store here, thus widening her acquaintance, and her courtesy and tireless patience won her the high esteem of employers and customers alike. She had lived approximately thirty years in her last residence, across the street east from the water tower. Mrs. Yates was a member of the Presbyterian church and a contributor to its work as long as she was able. Surviving besides the two sons here are three grandsons, Lt. Virgil T. Yates of the U. S. Army, recently sent overseas; William Yates, a chemist located in West Virginia, and Thomas L. Yates, an advertising agency executive of Fort Worth, Texas; and. a niece of whom she was very fond, Miss Daisy Franklin of St. Joseph, many years a teacher in the city school system there. | Emmerson, Martha E.
