According to deductions of detective Mr. Remington had driven his car into the driveway and had stopped at the garage door to leave the automobile there for the night.
Mr. Remington apparently had walked to the rear of the car and was opposite the kitchen window when he encountered the slayer.
According to Mrs. L. Betts of 401 South St. Andrews street, who heard Mr. Remington arrive home, no conversation preceded the slaying. Mr. Remington, who was carrying a leather portfolio, attempted to ward off the attack with the leather case.
When the body was found it was discovered that one charge of buckshot had passed over the top of the portfolio, which Remington had held against his chest, and that one of the shot had entered his heart. A second shot entered just above the heart.
A second charge struck the leather brief case and glanced to one side.
Mr. Remington staggered about 15 feet toward the front of his home and fell dead in the driveway.
