)SHOT TO DBA'CH. Patter Defends Himuself ad His 0_.e-William J. Harley Killed' Near Hakeyville. tate. George, Jan. 20.-The ,much *d of William J. Harley of Har lle this count3., was killed by . Parlor last, night at Harley . Harley went to Parley's house 1 was going into tile Kront, door, eatening to kill and drag Parler t of the house.~ Parlor saw and ard him coming, and asked Harley everal times not to co.me into the ouse but Harley walked up the teps toward the front door with a ouble-barrel shot gun in his hand, ld When h-e had reached the top of ie ,steps and .was crossing'the porch -the direction of the front door arl(r saw that there was nothing lse to be done for his safety and for he protection of his family and his ome. He fired at H-arley, hitting im in the right sidej Harley turn slightly and fell down the steps d died instantly. This is the same W. J. Harley who as. been terrorizing this community nd especially the vicinity of Harley ille, for the past several years. He was tried about a year ago at the sessions court of this county for stab bing Richard Weeks, a young white man, on the court house grounds here while court, was in session. He was arrested for this, but escaped and tried in his absence and found guilty and at the time of his death a sealed sentence awaited him in the clerk of court's ofilce here. On the afternpon that Harley was killed it is said that he was walking 1up and down the town of Unrleyville, c1urs1ing0 anid shooting off firearms along the streets, and the whole coin munity was in a state of great fear and excitement. Coronor Kizer war summoned last night and held an inquest over the body of Harley, the jury returning a verdict that he came to his death by a gun shot wound in the hands of C. C.~Parler. It was only about. an hour before the killing that. Harley came up to a peaceable negro in a store at Harley vile and pulled his pistol and made the negro stand still while lie bent him unmercifully over the head with the handle of the pistol, and when the negro begged for mercy Harley shot at the negro and missed him only a short distance, and almost hitting the proprietor of the -store and his little nephew. Harley wias regarded as an all round bad man. was single and about 36 years old. The unanimons verdict, of all who have knowledv(, of this tiraedy is that PNrler did the nly thing that he could have done to protect himself, his fimily and his premises: in fact. had Parler not ncted when lie diJ and as he did Harley would have killed him ill his own hi nse and in the pres ence of his family.. Pnrler surrendered himiself to Slier iff Kizer and is no-- safe under nr rest. *Parler lias retnined Messrs. E. JT. Dennis and M. S. Connor to de fend him. NOTTO0 ' OP wRTNEiRSHTP.
