This headstone in the Shofner Cemetery marks the graves of Roy Morehouse and his first wife Lucille. Morehouse was acquitted by a Lufkin jury after he slashed the throat of Mott Flournoy in the courtroom of the Angelina County courthouse in 1941 as Flournoy stood trial for the ax-murder of Morehouse's wife, Lucille. The jury's verdict was not guilty by reason of temporary insanity.
