Two negroes from the Honea Path ection of Anderson county engaged in difficulty on a Southern excursion rain returning from Savannah to An erson, between Pomaria and Pros erity, in the lower section of New erry county, on Friday afternoon, as result of which Jim Jackson, one of he negroes, was killed, and Newt fadison, the other, is in the Newber y jail. The body of the deceased was put ff here, and Madison and several itnesses were turned over to Chief of lolice Bishop. Coroner W. E. Felker was out of the ity on a vacation, but he learned of he killing, and came back to Newber y and held the inquest. The train, consisting of eight coach s, six of which were loaded with ne ,roes, the two others being occupied iy white people, pulled into the union tation -at 4.15 o'clock. The train was letained at the depot for a while un il the necessary arrangements could e made. Coroner Felker being out of the city, .nd Magistrate John Hei#ry Chappell )eing sick in bed, Col. 0. L. Schum )ert, local counsel for the Southern, vas asked his opinion and he advised hat the dead body be removed from he train and that the train be permit ed to go on to its destination, which vas done. As soon as Coroner Felker reached he city, the inquest was held, with the :ollowing jury, which had been se .ured: Irby D. Shockley, foreman; 0. I. Peterson, Jno. W. Earhardt, J. J. litt, H. D. Havird, Geo. W. Summer, r., Frank P. DeVore, C. B. Spinks, J. J. Morris, S. E. Foy, T. C. Burns, G. 3. Evans and T. E. Grizzard. Several negro men and women testi ied the gist of their testimony being :hat the two men, Jim Jackson and qewt Madison, met on the train and )assed rough words, when Newt Madi ;on pulled his pistal and shot Jim rackson, killing him. It seems that there had been an old rudge between the two, which was evived on the train, although the wit 1esses testified that neither of the nen seemed to have been drinking. Dr. W. E. Pelham, Jr., examined the lead body and certified to finding bhree bullet holes in the body, one wo and a half inches above 'and one hird inch to right of left nipple, three Lnd three-fourth inches to left of mid ie line of chest; one on back of right land midway between index finger Lnd thumb, and One on back of right orearm, midway between wrist and ~lbow joint. Dr. Pelham gave it as iis opinion that the chest wound was cufficient to have caused death. The verdict of the jury was that Jim Fackson came to his death from a u.nshot wound at the hands of Newt 4adison. Madison is in jail here, and the vitinesses are also being held here. The dead body was taken in charge y Baxter & Son to be prepared for >urial. Mr. J. F.
