Story of conflicting wives:
The first Mrs. Walter JONES apparently incured the wrath of Rushie JONES, the second wife of Walter JONES. Apparently the first wife wanted to reclaim Walter and Rushie ran the first wife off with a kitchen knife.
The second wife of Walter was very religious, but you did not want to make an enemie of her. ~Never-the-less, it seemed to be a good union.
