Suspect sought in attempted murder Argument ends with pursuit, near-fatal shooting
By ECHO DAY eday@covingtonleader.com MASON – Police are searching for a man they say tried to kill another man after a bar fight Sunday. According to police chief James Paris, Wallace Jermaine Goodwin was charged with attempted firstdegree murder, reckless endangerment and criminal attempt in the shooting of Devon Fields. Police reports indicate Goodwin, Fields and other individuals were
involved in an argument at the Low End Bar on Front Street at approximately 11:30 p.m. Fields reportedly left in his vehicle and headed to a residence in the Richland Hills subdivision. That's when police say the shooting happened. Goodwin allegedly began following Fields and before Fields could arrive at his destination, Goodwin began shooting at him and his vehicle near the area of Friendship Circle and Countryside. Fields, said Paris, was hit by
gunfire at least four times, one of those in the back of his head. A Countryside residence was also struck by a bullet. A police officer found Fields at Gainesville Lane and Springview. He was transported to Regional One Medical Center in Memphis. His condition is unknown. Paris said Goodwin is still at large and may be driving a white, late '90s model four-door Buick. Anyone with information about his whereabouts is asked to call Mason Police at (901) 294-2189.

Atoka mother requests change in attendance policy By FRANCE GASQUET fgasquet@covingtonleader.com During last week's school board meeting, Brandi Beamon, mother of an Atoka second-grader, requested a change in the system's attendance policy after a tardy resulted in her daughter's disqualification from an award. Beamon suggested an amendment that would require four tardies the number that would disqualify a student from earning the perfect attendance award. Currently, one unexcused tardy disqualifies a student from the award. "Her not getting awards did disappoint me, but
I wanted her to be aware that it's important for her to go to school and your education is important. BRANDI BEAMON Atoka Elementary parent
there is significant reason … she was awarded a perfect attendance ribbon with her first … she hasn’t missed any days this year at school. She has two tardies, one excused, one unexcused." Beamon said, when it happened, she didn't review the attendance policy, but most parents wouldn't. Her daughter's report card, she said, has two tardies recorded during the first semester and none during
the second semester. "I didn’t think any more about them, because I thought four tardies was an absence … we get a report card next spring, and she has a perfect attendance in there, as well as the A-B honor roll ribbon, as well. So I’m assuming she has perfect attendance." Beamon said during the end of the year awards assembly, her daughter did not receive the awards and she was angered by it.
“When it comes to May 21, awards day, and she doesn’t get a ribbon, I’m in question … and like I said, she has two tardies, one unexcused." Beamon said she didn't even sign her daughter out for field trips because she believes attendance is important. "I didn’t sign her out, even when we had challenge field trips or regular field trips, I didn’t sign her out because that would indicate a tardy and I wanted her to be aware that it’s important for her to go to school and your education is important and so forth." Beamon is upset that the school could not provide her with proof of the tardies
On Thursday, four Mississippians were arrested after police say they were intending to sell methamphetamine. The arrests, said Sheriff Pancho Chumley, came as the result of a narcotics investigation. After conducting a traffic stop, deputies and investigators reportedly saw a pipe commonly associated with the smoking of meth in plain view. Two bags of meth – a total seven grams – was found inside the vehicle. Charles Marcus Lowery, 31, Ronald Wayne Ellis, 28, Jessica Nicole Hannan, 22, and Amanda Gail Ralston, 22, were arrested on the scene and the vehicles and the narcotics were seized by officers. Hannon and Ralston reportedly live together on Carter Road in Southaven.. Lowery is their next-door neighbor. Ellis lives on West South Street in Hernando. Ellis and Hannan were charged with possession of schedule II drugs with intent to sell and possession of drug paraphernalia. Lowery and Ralston were charged with possession of schedule II drugs with intent to sell. They are due back in court on June 24 and are currently being held on a $20,000 bond. Crossing the state lines to sell drugs, as well as the amount of narcotics in their possession, may lead to federal charges for the group. It is unclear what, if any, ties the group has to the area. The sheriff urges anyone with information about this case, or any other drug trafficking case, to contact 901-4753300.

Woman uses Facebook to share violent beating almost over there and he said, 'She's going to call the cops, get in the car, we gotta go.' As he drove off, he said, 'Whenever I get out, I will kill you.' Beaten and bloodied, it has taken weeks for her wounds to heal. Her heart's still working on it, but Brower wants to turn this into something positive and encourage other people to speak out, too.
By ECHO DAY eday@covingtonleader.com Angela Brower isn't pulling any punches – and she's not taking anymore, either. After her boyfriend of five months physically assaulted her, this Covington woman said she's fighting back. "He was the perfect gentleman, he got me. When we first met, we would, every morning, sit at the edge of the bed, read the bible and pray, for the first two months of our relationship." The perfect facade didn't last, though. The mid-May beating was the third time he'd laid his hands on her, she said. "I told him, 'If you put your hands on me again, I will expose you, I will let everybody know what kind of person you are.' I didn't never think posting the pictures on Facebook would go this far, but now, for that, I am very excited that they did. 'Cause now, there are so many people that are reaching out." The first time it happened, three months ago, she had him arrested, but the charges didn't stick. "The minute I saw him walk into the courtroom … I decided at that point not to press charges. I don't know why." Brower's incident was one of many that will be reported to the state this year. Earlier this month, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigations released the results of a study that analyzed crime data. The report found that simple assault – like the assault experienced by Brower – was the most frequently reported offense, accounting for 68.8 percent of all domestic violence offenses. With 43.2 percent of all incidents, boyfriend-girlfriend relationships, the TBI reported, accounted for the most frequently reported incidents. TBI Director Mark Gwyn said this kind of crime creates a real threat to the communities and often results in murder. After she dropped the charges, the abuse didn't end. "We were driving down the road, everything had been fine, I guess I made a comment he didn't want to hear and he turned and back-handed me, in the car, driving down the road. We got (home), he apologized; he can't

deal with everyday stress was his excuse. He has put his hands on me three times. This last time, I told him, "You're an addict, you're choosing one drug over another and you're replacing one with the next." After that, Brower kicked her boyfriend out. He left – peacefully, she said – but returned later to collect his belongings. "He came back later that night, had his aunt bring him, and I said, 'You know, I'll stay outside.' Let him get his things, I'll stay outside.'" Brower said she was talking on the phone outside when she was caught off-guard, returning inside to answer a question he and his aunt had. "And when that happened, we had some words and I had went back to my bedroom to look for something he was looking for. That's when it happened." Brower alleges her boyfriend pushed her down, then punched her in the face. "I kinda went back, just kinda fell back. I can't say that I lost consciousness, but I could have because the next thing I remember is that he was hitting me in the back of the head. He tried to come at me again, but his aunt intervened. He took her and slung her against the wall; there was a roomsized mirror on the wall and she had to get 17 stitches in her arm." Fearing for her life, while he was busy in the kitchen, Brower escaped and ran to a neighbor's house. "I got out of the house. Thank God I made it. Whenever he noticed I got out, he came outside and of course my instant reaction was to run. I started running over to the neighbor's. I got

Continued from A1 "I won't stop what I'm doing. That'll be my goal. I'll be going back to school to pursue social work. Right now, I'm via Facebook and I have a secret group called The Face of Domestic Violence. That's gotten a lot of attention and a lot of support." Brower believes God spared her for a reason. "He knew what the outcome would be. He knew the choice I would make." Like many domestic abuse victims, she's finding it hard to let go, pulled one way by common sense and the other by love and fear. "I was head over heels in love with that man. My heart still wants him, but my mind and my body can't have him. And that's a lot of the reason women

Shake hands.
POLICY
Continued from A1 and would like the system-wide policy changed. "My position is, I don’t feel that having one unexcused absence, regardless, is fair to not get your award. I just feel like you should not be able to get your award based on one tardy, whether it’s excused or unexcused.
"So I’m asking you make an amendment to the policy that it’s four tardies, whether excused or unexcused that constitutes an absence, then you will not get your awards, rather than just one unexcused tardy. Does that make sense?” The board thanked Mrs. Bearmon for her request.

A few random thoughts
Recently, I’ve been thinking about how we treat ourselves and each other a great deal. You could almost say it’s become a recurring theme in my head, so I thought I’d share. Things to stop doing to each other and ourselves • Stop assuming. Stop assuming the other person’s intentions. We all have different perspectives and you might be surprised to know that person A was thinking of something completely opposite than you. • Stop lying to others and stop lying to yourself. The second one is often neglected because it’s easier to keep listening to that tape in your head. But sometimes, the tape needs to be reset. • Stop putting each other down. Because frankly, the person this hurts most is yourself. You may have all the best experience or leadership qualities or be a really great person, but what others see is someone with whom they might not want to spend too SOUTHERN FRANCE much time. FRANCE GASQUET • Don’t allow others to fail in order to prove your point. If you are part of a team, what is the focus? What is the main goal? Sometimes the purpose gets lost because of our egos. • Stop berating yourself and others for old mistakes. Okay, this is two-sided; stop berating so that you can move forward, but don’t forget. • Stop trying to compete against others. If you do your best consistently, then you will be a leader, because here’s a secret: not that many people are consistent; often, we do things in pops of interest and then move on. If you want it, be consistent. • Don’t allow yourself to drop to someone else’s level. Take the high road, if for no other reason than you have no idea what is going on in his or her life. Often we color outside the boxes, so to speak, when we are stressed, angry or depressed. • Stop worrying so much and just do it. Enough said. • Stop being ungrateful. Seriously, just stop. Each and every one of us is priveleged. By the mere fact that we are American, we have something to be grateful for. Appreciate those around you, for they choose to be there. It’s an interesting thing we take for granted, that we choose our friends, where we work, live, volunteer and consider family. It’s important, y’all. Things to start doing to each other and ourselves: • Practice kindness. I don’t mean, “Be happy.” I mean actively be kind. Pause before you speak. I think of when I am cross to others, especially a certain child, and I can’t remember later why I was cross, just that I was. That I have regrets is enough reason for me to work on this. • Celebrate small wins. I learned this in a leadership class back in graduate school and it’s stuck with me. Yes, the big final goal is important, but celebrating along the way is huge for moral. • Realize that you are a voice to be heard. This includes listening to yourself. I have a friend who has gone through several bad relationships recently and she’s having to find her own way again. That can be scary, especially when you have deferred your opinion. Relearning who you are and what you like takes time, but it is worth the experience. • Acknowledge we are all works in progress. This county, each one of us individually, the groups you volunteer with. None of us are perfect- some may be close, but we all are in need of improvement. • Practice patience. Things don’t happen overnight. However, this also goes hand in hand with: • Be proactive. Be part of the solution. • Recognize if you want it badly enough, you’ll do it. Said another way, “no excuses.” • Take time to just breathe and enjoy the moment. Sometimes this is easier said than done. • Choose to be a Pollyanna. There is so much in my self, my town, my state, my country, my world that needs changing. So much to be made better. If I knock my self down without any solution, then I am only creating more strife. I choose to be realistic about my self, acknowledge where I stand, have a plan of action and then follow through. And all the while I’m doing this, I’m completely positive. Why? Because I want move forward with positive actions. •Be healthy. Live well. Walk. Spend more time being creative. Turn off the televsion, computer, Internet. Go outside. That’s all I have. These are more notes for me than for you. Guidelines of how I want to live my life. I hope you find some of them valuable, too.

years later as Momma and I sat on the front porch reliving the past. First, Momma didn’t have any money to pay Doc Flippin. She put me to bed with the ever present and famous saying, “It’ll be ‘are-ite.” Now satisfied I was going to live she headed to the hen house on the run. She gathered, cleaned and candle-lighted two dozen one yolk eggs and immediately walked back up to the great doctor’s office. At this early age, I didn’t realize folks had to pay for services rendered; mommas and daddies always took care of everything. Kids played, but that changed. Beloved Daddy was working at the Millington naval base at this time, additionally selling country eggs at two bits a dozen to the sailor boys, so the cacklers were fed a little extra and urged to shift to road gear for faster laying. Two days later, Momma rounded up another dozen, fresh country eggs and proudly baked Doc Flippin a chess pie. With her head held high, she triumphantly paid my surgery completely in just a few days.

Biorefineries in existence on or before June 18, 2008 are eligible for payments to replace fossil fuels used to produce heat or power with renewable biomass. Since President Obama took office, USDA has provided $6.9 million to help biorefineries transition from fossil fuels to renewable biomass systems. The deadline for applications is Sept. 15, 2014.

When you invest, you can also get “burned” if you are not careful — especially if you are inclined to chase after “hot” investments. By the time you hear about these socalled sizzlers, they may already be cooling off, and, even more importantly, they just might not be appropriate for your goals and risk tolerance. Instead of becoming a “heat-seeking” investor, focus your efforts on building a diversified array of quality investments appropriate for your needs. If you only own one type of financial asset, and a downturn hits that asset class, your portfolio could take a big hit. But by diversifying your holdings, you can help reduce the effects of volatility. Keep in mind, though, that diversification, by itself, can’t guarantee profits or protect against loss. As we’ve seen, some of the same principles that apply to creating a vacation may also be applicable to your investing habits. So, put these principles to work to enjoy a pleasant vacation — and a potentially rewarding investment experience.

ENERGY
Continued from A4 34,280 of the June 16 Federal Register. USDA is also seeking applications for NIFA’s Sun Grants program that encourages bioenergy and biomass research collaboration between government agencies, land-grant colleges and universities, and the private sector. Congress authorized the Sun Grant program in the 2008 Farm Bill and reauthorized the program in 2014. The program provides grants to five grant centers and one sub-
center, which then will make competitive grants to projects that contribute to research, education and outreach for the regional production and sustainability of possible biobased feedstocks. The project period will not exceed five years. The newest addition to the USDA Energy Web, the Tool Shed can help those interested in bioenergy business ventures by providing access to the data and information necessary to evaluate potential opportunities across the
entire supply chain: from feedstock production, to bioenergy production, bioenergy use, and linkages between feedstock production, bioenergy production and use. The tool is designed to assist in evaluating the feasibility and opportunities for locating a new biorefinery. It provides the stakeholder access to information on demographics, land use, biomass, feedstock, economics, and financial management.

When Christ returns in great power and glory, He will establish His Kingdom, ruling and reigning here on earth for one thousand years. That is what is called the Millennial Reign of Christ. So, how close are we? In 1991 when the first Gulf War was looming, my phone rang off the wall with people concerned we were about the see the battle of Armageddon. I was encouraged by their concern and used it as an opportunity to witness to them. Now, because we have been through that war and then the subsequent Iraq invasion in 2003, it seems people have no concern at all. The Bible predicted just that kind of attitude before He returns. Remember, any sign of His return is pointing to an event that is seven years after the Rapture. We are close to seeing Him, dear Christian. Instead of worrying and wringing our hands over the condition of the world, we need to be looking up. He said He would return and He will. Are you ready?

Covington FFA finishes year in style By CATHERINE TURNER Covington FFA The Covington FFA had a very successful end to the school year. On Sunday, Mr. Johnson took two students to the 65th annual Tennessee Forestry Camp at Fall Creek Falls State Park in Spencer. Ryan Wick and Sarah Kate Poole had a wonderful time at the camp, as they learned about tree identification, topographical maps, wildlife concepts, silver culture practices, fire management, pine management, compass and pacing, diseases and insects in forestry, tree measuring, and an introduction to GPS. On Friday, Mr. Cole brought additional students from CHS to Camp Clements to compete in the state forestry, state environmental and the national chapter award competitions. The teams did extremely well in their competitions. The forestry team finished first in the district, second in West Tennessee and sixth in the state. In this contest, members had to identify trees, compass and pacing, chainsaw identification, insects and diseases, map reading, as well as team and individual exams. Team members were Britney Kellum, Ryan Wick, Kayla Fisher and Sarah Kate Poole. The environmental and NRM team finished first in the district, first in West Tennessee and third in the state in the competition. In this contest, team members had to identify many different forms of wildlife (birds, reptiles, amphibians, mammals, invasive species, insects and wildlife tools and equipment), a 50-question
test on wildlife knowledge, and a team activity where the students had to identify biotic organisms, abiotic organisms, food webs, different types of succession and balanced or unbalanced ecosystems. Team members were Britney Kellum, C.J. Cunningham, Kate Armstrong and Katilynn Poole. In the National Chapter Award competition, the chapter finished first in West Tennessee and sixth in

Family time
Brighton baseball coach steps down to watch own kids play By JEFF IRELAND jireland@covingtonleader.com Brian Oswalt has spent countless hours at various fields around West Tennessee while serving as head baseball coach at Brighton High School for the last dozen years. A few weeks ago, following a season-ending loss to Bartlett in the region semifinals, he decided it was time to focus his attention elsewhere. Oswalt, who was the longest-tenured high school baseball coach in Tipton County, tendered his resignation as coach (he will remain at BHS as a teacher) to spend more time watching his children play the sport he loves. "It's been fun," said Oswalt, 39. "But I really want to watch my kids play. This year I think I only got to watch them three times." Oswalt's nine-year-old daughter Molly and seven-yearold son Oliver play softball and baseball, respectively. Oswalt grew up in a baseball family. His brother, Roy, was a very successful major league pitcher for 13 seasons with the Astros, Phillies, Rockies and Rangers. His parents were regulars at Brian's and Roy's baseball games growing up. "My mom and dad never missed a game of mine," Oswalt said. "I looked back at it and I'm thinking I'm missing a lot of my kids' lives. I don't think it's fair for me not to be there and support them like I was supported when I was a kid." Oswalt had a successful run at Brighton, with just one losing season in 12 years. His teams won three district titles, finished second twice and advanced to region six times. The program's high-water mark came in 2007 when the Cardinals won District 13-AAA, defeated Cordova in the region semifinals and advanced to the sectionals, where a loss to powerhouse Houston left them one win shy of the program's first state tournament berth. Several of Oswalt's players have played in college after leaving Brighton. And one, Joe Melton, played professionally. "We've had some good athletes come through here, really good guys," Oswalt said. "I've had a ton of ex-players call SEE OSWALT, PAGE B9

The Civil War and Tipton County By RUSSELL BAILEY Tipton County Historian Tipton’s infantry soldiers October.-November 1863 Georgian John K. Jackson led Cheatham’s brigades to upper East Tennessee. Tipton’s men in the 51st Tennessee, Gen. Marcus Wright’s brigade, remained at Charleston. A soldier in the 13th Tennessee wrote on Oct. 25th their rations consisted of “hard bread and bacon.” Gen. Otho F. Strahl’s brigade (including the “Tipton Rifles,” 4th Tennessee), marched 14 miles to Athens on Oct. 27. Two days later, the brigade had marched to Sweetwater; they were joined by the brigades of George Maney (including Tipton’s Co. C, 9th Tennessee) and Alfred J. Vaughan (including Tipton’s men in the 13th and 154th Tennessee). “This is a beautiful little valley, also
very healthy,” wrote William Dillon. It was reported that the Federals began their retreat to from Loudon to Kingston. Maney and Vaughn’s brigades began their movement south to Chattanooga on Nov. 5. On the 8th, John H. Sweet of Wesley, in Tipton’s Co. C, 9th Tennessee wrote of their recent trip: “We have just returned from a trip into East Tennessee, where we got big amounts of everything to eat and everything we eat is so good to me as I had been starved out so long on some bread and beef all that we got while we were here besieging Chattanooga. Up there we got sweet and Irish potatoes, chickens, molasses, wheat bread and everything that was good for a poor soldier. “Oh, how I do wish that I could be at home now, for it is getting late in the evening and I have had nothing to eat since breakfast and no telling when we
will get rations for our rations are out, since we left our ration wagons behind in coming here to this place, for I know you have all had a good and plentiful dinner. I know you will say poor John, but this is only a chapter in military service which we often read, but I am content and will be more so when we get rations. The independence of the bounty is what I want and I am I am willing to suffer for something to eat many, many days if it will only send me to my dear parents, a full and independent boy. “The enemy still holds their position in Chattanooga and our lines drawn up close around the place. We are now on the top of Lookout Mountain overlooking the town. We have a fine view of our entire line and also of theirs. It is said that we can see into five different states from our position. It is very cold up here, as cold as it is where you are in mid-winter.
“You must excuse this exceedingly bad letter as I have written in great haste. My love to you and all. Write when you can and a long letter as I am very anxious to hear from you.” The very day that Cheatham’s division began their movement to upper East Tennessee, Oct. 23, 1863, Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant slipped into Chattanooga. He had recently assumed command of the military division of the Mississippi, embracing the river east to the mountains. The next day, Grant ordered a supply line, known as the ‘cracker line,’ to be opened at Brown’s Ferry on the Tennessee River. This would enable the bases in Alabama to supply Chattanooga more directly. On the 26th, Gen. Joseph Hooker’s reinforcements from Virginia were marching on Chattanooga from Bridgeport, Ala. Continued next week

Mt. Carmel-Clopton Elaine Watkins The sun came out this morning! I think it's the first blue sky morning we’ve had since the big storm on the 5th of June. We've had several rains since last week and I just pray it continues on into July and August! This week's farm report: wheat is begging to be cut as soon as it and the ground dry out. Corn and soybeans continue to grow with their wet feet, as well as a little cotton I've seen around. I rode to Memphis with Liz and Lyla Thursday for Lyla’s four-year-checkup. All is well, so we took her to Target where we grabbed a bite to eat. That night we all went to Clint and Courtney's for a big Father's Day cookout with smoked ribs, turkey, ham and

OSWALT
Continued from B1 and text me to tell me how much they appreciate what I've done for them. It's means a lot. My wife put something on Facebook and the response was crazy." Oswalt will coach the team through the summer as the Brighton administration looks for his replacement. Next spring, when the temperatures warm up and baseball gets going, Oswalt figures he will miss being in the dugout and in the coach's box. "It's going to hurt a little bit next year when baseball cranks up," Oswalt said, "but I'll get to see my little boy and little girl run around the bases. I'll take that."
