night near Longs vi lie. Shortly
before 12 o'rlock on Friday night
Mr Love died from his wounds
I Coroner Young hold an inquest
on Saturday and the jury returned
a verdict of death from a pistol

one not known 10 the jury. On
Sunday, Coroner Young was notified
of new evidence and held
anothbr inquest over the body
the second jury finding that Love
came to his death by a pistol shot
wound at the hands of Benj Hinson.
Hinson had been committed
1 to jail prior to the second inquest.
The circumstances of the killing
as elicited at the inquest were
about as follows: Love and Roht
Baker fell out and passed blows
at the house of Bud Hlackmon,
| col. A friend of Love's carried
him otr a short distance to pacify
him. When returning to the
house they met Baker and Ben
Hinson about the corner of the
stable. Love threw his arm on
Baker's shoulder and asked if he
wasn't his friend. Baker answered
yes, when he treated him right
and with an oath added something
else, whereupon Love struck him.
Hinson pushed them apart saving
they mr-tn't tight Love asked
Hinson if lie meant to take it up
and struck him with his fi-t whereupon
Hinson pulled his pistol and
shot Love, the ball entering just
e? J
below the heart. Baker was standing
in rear of Hinson when Hinson
fired and both ran otr immediately
hut returned later. Two other
i shots were tired but the witnesses
say they were not tired by any of
those present at the difficulty.
Love fell to the ground as soon
as Hinson tired saying Ben Charlev
vou have killed me. You shot

are told, was under the influence

who lives near Jncksonham, lost
his cotton house together with
about eight hales of seed cotton,
and 75 bushels of wheat tind oats,

citizens of the county, industrious

The Case Settled
The case against Mr. J W Jennings
of the Craigville ncighlx>rhood,
charged with shooting into

hearing unnecessary. Mr. Jennings'
statement of the affair is

and does not believe shot from bia
gun could bave gone into Mr. W'a
dwelling about 900 yards distant.

Evangelist Silenced Him.
Winston Sontitel, 23d.
Last night on the train from
Salisbury to Greensl>oro was a
man who said ho was a drummer.
He was very mouthy, telling
how ha sold so many goods, to wit: j
by carrying around with him a
few three cent cigars and a pint
of mean corn whiskey by which he
said he could fool any Southern
buyer, as they had but little sense. ;
He talked loudly and many in the
car heard him. Finally he said
the preachers all drank and hehad
often had them drink with him
front a bottle when out of their
congregations. Sitting a few seats
behind the drummer was Evangelist
Lee, who could not stand
such an inmiitntmn lir>
, , j""
ceeded to make k few remarks,
the gist of which was that the man
wan slandering the people of the
South and in short was telling a
falsehood.
The drummer said were it not |
for Mr I^ee's clerical robe he
would \vij>e up the ground with
I him. Mr I^ee told the man not to :
consider his clerical coat as he'
could protect himself. Of course
the man did not avail himself of
the offer, but Capt. R R Glenn,
of Winston, who was standing by,
full of indignation, rer"?*ked that
be was no preacher, but a lawyer,
and be wanted to repeat that what
he (the drummer) had said about
the people of this part of the
country and especially the ministers,
was a downright falsehood
and if be wanted to take it up for
him to pitch in, there being no
clerical roh*a In tka ?? ?
