Hawk, is manager of one of the small mills of the company at Croatan, 10 miles from this city. It seems that J. E, Hawk had suspicions that the finan cial affairs of E. O. Hawk were not what they ought to be; so this morn ing J. E. Hawk, learning that his brother was in the olty, drove to Croa tan and got possession of the books used at the, mill, and brought them back with him. When E. O. Hawk had, been informed of bis brother's actions he went to the office of the com pany and demanded that the books be returned to him, but upon refusal, witness says, he drew bis revolver and thea demanded the books. The other ran his hand to his hip in an attempt to draw his pistol, but W. F. Aberley, secretary and treasurer of the com pany, interfered, and In the melee one gun waa exploded, but no damage was dona. - Alt officer arrived on the scene and arrested all the parties.
