WIFE FIRST T0 SECURE WEAPON Family Quarrel Ends in Hus= band Being Killed. SPOUSE TELLS HER STORY Says Husband Reached Under Pillow to Get His Revolver but She Beat Him to It—Fires Fatal Shot Before | He Can Interfere. Virginia, Minn, June 2.—Deputy Shcriff Joseph Boyami of Aurora reached for a revolver that he kept under his pillow, his wife said, while he was quarreling with his helpmeet, but she was quicker. She got the weapon, thrust it against his forehead | and fired, killing him. Now she is in custody here. While their two children, three and five years old, slept in the same room, Boyvami, his wife says, made accusa- tions against her; she resented them, and they quarreled until Boyami fell asleep, apparently partly pacified by her replies. But early next morning before the couple got up the husband renewed the quarreling, became infuriated in spite of his wife's efforts to calm him, Mrs. Boyami says. Finally his hand sought the pistol. His wife anticipated his purpose, thrust her hand beneath the pillow, her fingers felt the weapon and, draw- ing it forth, she fired before Boyami could prevent her. This is her story of the killing.
