THOS. D. JONES SHOOTS AND KILLS IVEY W. DOLES WITH A PISTOL
About 8 o'clock last tuesday might a pistol shot was hear in the drinking saloon of Thos. D. Jones. No one was in the saloon except H.R. Ferrell, Thos. D. Jones and Ivey W. Doles, though a good many persons were on the street nearby. It was soon ascertained that Jones had shot Doles in the head with a pistol. Doles was behind the counter and Jones was in front of it and they had been quarreling for some time; finally Doles called Jones a d____d drunken s__ of a b____ and threw his hand toward his pocket as if he was in the act of drawing something from his pocket, but no pistol and nothing but a pocket knife was on his person. Jones was standing right across the counter and immediately shot. The ball entered Doles' forehead above the left eye and ranged straight through the head. Doles fell and never spoke and was never conscious at all after the shot. He was carried home in an hour or so and died at 11 o'clock that night. Jones was at once arrested by the sheriff and was taken that night to the sheriff's house where he and his wife spent the night. The homicide under the circumstances was very sad and most unfortunate. Jones and Doles married twin sisters Misses Fuller, daughters of Charles W. Fuller of Crawford. The parties were living together in the same house their families, and were doing business together. The difficulty arose, we understand, about some business matters and had been brewing for several days. On Tuesday the parties had a stiff quarrel using very rough language towards each other which finally brought on the fatal difficulty. Mr. Doles leaves and aged mother, a wife and five little children, to mourn his untimely death.

UNFORTUNATE FAMILY: THE DOLES-JONES MATTER REVIVED BY THE DEATH OF MRS. DOLES
Mrs. Eva Doles died at the home of her father, Mr.Charles Fuller two miles south of Crawford, Ala., at 8 o'clock Friday night. The death of Mrs. Doles is a tragic ending to four lives.
Some ten years ago Ivey Doles and Tom Jones married twin sisters, daughters of Mr. Charles Fuller, a highly respected citizen of Russell county. For years the two men were warm friends and were intimately associated. In 1883 Jones kept a barroom in Seale, and Doles was deputy sheriff of Russell county. The two men had a quarrel in Jones' bar one afternoon and Jones shot and killed Doles. Jones was tried for murder and was found guilty of murder in the second degree and sentenced to the penitentiary for eighteen years. His lawyers succeeded in getting a new trial and Jones gave bond and was released from jail. On the second trial, in 1886, Jones was again convicted and sentenced this time for 15 years. After being in the penitentiary for about seven months the governor pardoned Jones on the recommendation of the penitentiary physician, who gave it as his opinion that he was a victim of consumption and had but a short lease of life. Jones returned to his old home in Russell county where he died last winter.
In the meantime Mrs. Doles and Mrs. Jones were living with their father. About three weeks ago Mrs. Jones died, leaving five little children. On Friday, as stated in the beginning of this article, Mrs. Doles also laid down the weary burden of life and went to the throne of the Great Comforter, who healeth all wounds of grief and frees the soul from all sorrow.
Mrs. Doles also left five little children. Fuller, their grandfather has charge of these ten orphan children, and will do all in his power to guide their footsteps through the rugged paths of life.
This is indeed a sad termination to four lives, which, a few years ago, were unclouded by sorrow and unsullied by evil.

The place of her burial is unknown, but as she died in her father’ home in Crawford, Russell, Alabama, it is presumed that she is buried in the cemetery there, where her youngest son, Jesse, is also buried.
The purpose of this memorial is not only to remember him, my 2nd great-grandfather, but also so that the known burial places of his and Evaline’s children may be brought together in the same memorial with their parents.
