  John A. Baty shot and killed his father-in-law, Spartan H. Bruce on Friday, April 21, 1874. Moulton Advertiser dated May 22, 1874: On Thursday last, in the neighborhood of Danville, Mr. John Beaty shot and mortally wounded Mr. Spart Bruce. Bruce was not expected to live. We have no particulars. (Jamile has a copy from Laurel Baty of MD) Family Lore: December 1897 he was found dead, with a gun lying beside him. The newspaper articles say accidental shooting. Don't have copy of any articles.
