THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
KILEHB NEAR KANNAPOIAS
Officers Searching for Henry Bfctfr,
1 Who Is Believed to Have Fired Fa
tal Shot.
An unidentified negro, snown to
some people as John Flowe, but appar
ently without friends or relatives in
this section of t)>o country, wbb kill
ed yesterday afternoon in a railroad
shanty, just north of Cook's Cross
ing, and Henny Barber, also colored, is
being sought as the slayer.
The shooting occurred in a shanty
occupied as a home by James Barn
ett, negro, who was held by the offi
cers as a material witness. He tes
tified before a coroner’s jury empau- \
neled in Kannapolis this morning by
- Joe A. Hartsell, and later 1
was released.
The dead man was shot three 1
times, twice in his left arm and once ]
in the chest. The slayed used a .32 1
calibre gun.
Barnett told the officers that he was 1
in the room when the shooting occur- \
red but was asleep so he did not know
how the trouble started. Officers are
working on the theeory that the shoot- \
ing followed a quarrel which arose
wRIle the men were gambling.
Barnett told the officers that he and
Barber were the only persons in the
room when he went to sleep. When
he was awakened by the firing of the
gun, he and the dead man were the
only persons in the. room, he said.
Barber is said to have caught
southbound train No. 45 .and to have
alighted at Newell. A negro was ar
rested there but he was not the right
man. Officers in Charlotte were ad
vised to be on the watch for him but
no arrests were made there.
Barber, it is said, carries a long
sear on one cheeky the result of a gash
said to have been administered by the
dead Flowe. Officers take this ns that
the men had trouble before the shoot
ing affair occurred yesterday after
noon.
