Criminal Carelessness.
Coroner Louthian was called
to the Blairsville neighborhood
yesterday to hold an inquest over
the body of "Paul Sanders, 1
colored, who had been killed by !
the discharge of a gun in the ;
hands of Frank Wilson, also
colored. The testimony showed
that the negroes were discussing
in a friendly, manner how some
other negroes had acted cn a
{irevious occasion, and Wilson
oaded the gun and pointed it at
Sanders to show him. The gun
was discharged, the load taking
effect in Sanders' shoulder. The j
jury put the responsibility of j
Sanders' death on Wilson and
characterized the shooting as ;
the result of criminal careless- !
ness. Wilson was committed to
jail. ?Yorkville Enquirer, Friday.

Yesterday J. Henry Garrison,
of Gray Court, Laurens county,
began the service of a two-year i
sentence in the penitentiary at i
Columbia for the murder several
months ago of Louis Williamson,
a prominent young citizen of this

Williamson had gone to the home
