Lee said that my Daddy (Harry E. Jones) told him this. From Uncle Earle i.e. Earle Bittick Jones: "In Benton, Texas he (HWC) was called "The Squire". He was Justice of Peace and ran a store. He was head of Masons. He was constable of that precinct. Once HWC Bittick was called from San Antonio that a robber was coming toward Benton. The posse caught him. Uncle Earle saw them at the river with a bloody body across the saddle." ****** [see tombstone photo--Henry William Conway Bittick] Buried: Short Cemetery, South of Center, Shelby Co, Texas Henry W.
