On Saturday night last another
shooting scrape took place below the
railroad This tune both parties
were natives. -
It seems that one Jordan Taylor
was talking to a woman when Roscoe
Barnes walked up and sought to take
part in the conversation, he was told
to leave and upon his refusal to do
so Taylor pulled out a pistol and
fired, the ball takintr effect near the
the base of the neck and penetra ed
to a point in the region of the back
bone. Immediately after firing the
shot Taylor threw the pistol as , far
away as he could and mingled ; with
the crowcl that was soon on the; spot.
The weapon was recovered and.Tay
lor secured and locked up. The
wounded man wa3 taken home and
an attempt made to locate the ball but
without success.
This matter of carrying fire arms is
getting to be a serious matter and
some means of abating the evil should
be found or else the law prohibiting
their use should be repealed. Per
haps if a heavy tax were put upon all
pistols the market might in a meas
ure be cleared of a lot of the cheap
weapons now so common.
