The tragedy occurred at a negroJ house on the plantation of Hutto within 300 yards of his own dwelling. Love had been making his home .on the plantation during the recent few months. Three negroes, residents of the house where the white man lived, were eye witnesses to the tragedy. It is stated that Hutto purchased the shells with which he killed Love in the town of Pelion on Saturday, but he (himself had no gun. He went to the home of the negroes Saturday night, according to their story, and told them that somebody had been shooting into or around his residence and asked for the gun. After the gun had been handed him and just as Hutto was ^about to make his way out the door and back to his own home, Love, it is said, appeared on the scene. One of the witnesses testified that . ,. ? . . Love to:a Jtiutto, "I've got you wnere i want you now.", or words to that effect. Love was unarmed, it was stated, and a search of his person revealed the fact that the dead man did not have< a weapon about this body when, the coroner arrived. i Mter the shooting Hntto returned to 'his own home, where he spent the night. Sunday morning he went to" Pelion and called for Sheriff Miller to come after him, apprising the sheriff of his act. Love came to this county from G-eor gia aboui" 15 years ago. He was about 35 or 40 .years of age, and so far as is known lie has no relatives in this section. His body was buried at the ' expense of the county. Hutto has a wife and several children. The coroner's jury returned a verdict that Love came to his deatn by gunshot wounds in the hands of Scott. Hutto and that the defendant was justified in taking his life, a most unusual verdict. Hutic is now confined in the county [ '"i1. He has employed counsel and bail will ,be sought as soon as the i papers can be perfected. .January Woman' Home Companion.
