MAN IS DEAD, GIRL SLIGHTLY WOUNDED IN SHOOTING
WOMAN CLAIMS MAN SHOT HER THEN HIMSELF - Coroners Jury Holds Mary Campbell for Probe
Malcolm Hazelwood, 38, taxi driver of near Hampton and World War veteran is dead and Mrs. Mary Tims Campbell, 23-year-old widow, of Fish Springs, is in the Shoun Hospital slightly wounded as the result of what the woman said was an attempted murder and a suicide. Mrs. Campbell claims that Hazelwood shot her and took his own life. She had a bullet wound in the side of her abdomen which hospital attaches stated this morning was slight and that the woman would probably recover. A post mortem examination showed that Hazelwood's heart had been pierced by the bullet. Hazelwood's body was found in his home on Divide Ridge about two miles out from Hampton. He was the son of the Rev. E. E. Hazelwood. A coroner's jury composed of: Mike McKinney, Fred Weaver, N. E. Nidiffer, G. C. Goodwin, Geo. Hazelwood, C. A. Jackson, Ernest Shouts[sic], and Porter Nave are withholding a verdict pending further investigation. In the meantime Mrs. Campbell is being guarded by a deputy sheriff at the Shoun hospital.
According to statements of the Campbell girl, Hazelwood called her to come to his home late Tuesday afternoon and requested that she spend the night with him. She said, according to information from the hospital, that she spent the night with Hazelwood and Wednesday morning.
Shortly after noon on Wednesday, the girl is quoted as saying that she told Hazelwood that she was to become a mother in about six months and that he was the father of her unborn baby.
I'd rather see you dead than to have that baby," the girl said Hazelwood remarked.
She said that Hazelwood went into the small kitchen and then calling her to come with him. As she went into the kitchen door, the girl told friends that Hazelwood had one hand behind him and as the door closed he fired one shot at her.
The Campbell girl said that a minute later she ran into the bedroom another short was fired. She went back into the kitchen according to her version of the affair, and Hazelwood was on the floor and was bleeding on his chest. She said that she took a cloth and washed his face with cold water and then ran to the home of a neighbor to call for help. She was emphatic in her statements that Hazelwood shot at her and then killed himself.
Officers called at the Hazelwood home to make the investigation, said that the man was found dead in the kitchen but that no powder burns were found either on his body or the overall jacket he was wearing. Hospital attendants also said there were no powder burns on the girl's abdomen. The pistol was found in a dresser drawer about 25 feet from the place where Hazelwood's body was found.
The Campbell girl said that she had had intimate relations with Hazelwood for several months and was very fond of him. She indicated that her visit to his home late Tuesday evening and her all night stay was not unusual.
While the girl has been living at Fish Springs near here more than a year, she formerly lived at Johnson City. She is the widow of a Clarence Brooks, Mountain Home veteran, who was drowned in a lake at the government reservation.
Hazelwood's wife is dead. He is survived by two children, Christine and Charles and his parents, the Rev. and Mrs. E. E. Hazelwood of Fish Springs. Rev. Hazelwood is the pastor of the Fish Springs Baptist Church. Hazelwood's wife was the former Docia Radford, also of Fish Springs.
Hazelwood also is survived by one sister, Mrs. John Miller of Hampton.
