The Vif" asaogerously Voluded. On Suuday morning about 10 o'clock there was a very unfortunate tragedy enacted in No. 9 Township, this county. We say unfortunate. It is wvorse than unfortunate when two persons who have plighted their faith and pledged their love and started upon the journey of life together, and have been blessed with oftfpring, shall so forget their marital vows as to quarrel and iv-n at tempt to tear at each other's throats and iake (eudly assaults. It is deplor able, and we are sorry that such an in) uldent should have happened anywhere In the State, and more s0 that it took place in Newberry county. Mr. Noah Taylor and Mrs. Wesley Dominick were married aboutone year )go. They have a littl3 babe about two months old. Mrs. Doninick is the laughter of Mr. H. P. Dominick, and was first married to Mr. Wesley Domii alck, who died, leaving two child ren. 3he thei married Mr. Taylor as stated. Ee Is her first vousin. The married life of the two, we understand, has not een strewn with flowers but niany ,horns, and unpleasant incidents have marked the short journey they have made together as man and wife On Sunday morning they had some words about permitting a negro tenant 1o ride one of the mules to church. Sir. Taylor had given the permission nd his wife objected. Words followed Lnd Taylor drew his pistol and shot his vife in the face just under the eye. Vhe ball was probed for by Drs. Hunter 6ud Wheeler who were called in but, it -ould not be found. The wife, after ihe was shot, wrenched the pistol from ier husband and threw it under the iouse where it was afterwards found. 3he then walked to Mr. Zach Taylor's ,bout two hundred yards distant. Or 'ather she got nearly there and sent ier little children there to notify them >f the wounds, and some gentlemen ,ame out and assisted her to the house. ;he was later in the day moved to the 'esidence of Mr. Creighton Dominick vho lives near by. Mr. Taylor, after shooting his wife, rathered his razor and mnt a long gash n his throat and took his shot gun and hot a hole in his forehead, but nei ,her one of his wounds is thought to be atal, and Mrs. Taylor was doing as veil as could be expected. He was ilso moved to his father's, Mr. Zach Vaylor's. The only excuse for the trouble Sun lay, or rather we should say explana ion, is that Mr. Taylor was drinking. He lives about, five miles from Pros )erity and has recently built him a -onfortable home, and Is a hard work ng man. Only last week he built a lce barn and had planted out a good rchard and was to all appearances )repating to live a happy and comfort ,ble,life. When lie was first married he lived icar his wife's father's, Mr. H P. Domi flek's, but had recently moved down Aear his father's. We regrect very much t,he whole at Eair. Itemarkabtle IRescue. M rs.
