Murder of Josh Jones

On December 31, 1890 Ike and Josh Jones would get into a drunken fight near Woodbine, Texas. This would result in Ike stabbing his brother. Josh would not immediately die as he would live for 10 days and would die on Jan.9, 1891, in his father's home.

There is not much information in this case that I could find.
