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.
