When Graham left his wife were all passed out on the sofa with all them cigarette butts beside her, He admitted later that thoughts run through his head 'bout how easy it would be to get rid of her once and for all. If she burned up with the house he would be rid of her and all his bad memories what living in that house brought out. And the house did burn down. It were a spectacular fire with peoples coming from all over town to see it. Peoples was standing outside far enough from the heat not to get their eye lashes burnt. They was shouting out, "Mary Lou, Mary Lou." But of course all they heard back were the firefighters yelling back and forth to each other and the shush of the water coming from the hoses and the crackling of wood burning and the lapping of the flames against the night air. Right away Graham were a suspect. The sheriff put out notice that Mary Lou's husband were to be sought out for questioning. But of course Graham were with Mary Lou. They was off to the Mississippi Gulf Coast for a non-matrimonial honeymoon.
