Another Shooting Scrape.
A shooting affair occured at Simoi

place, some live miles east of Union, 01
last Saturday night about 12 .o'clock 1
seems -to have been a regular Saturd n
night negro frolie with the usual result
"another negro killed." The purlieu
lars, as near as we could gather from th
apparently unwilling witnesses, are abon
as follows: During the progress of th
indoor frolic a crowd of men were in tli
yard, more than likely gambling aroun
a fire, though that part of the proeee<
ings could not be elicited from the wi
nesses, a dispute or quarrel arose b?
tweeu Kay Spencerand Ned Smith. T1
ready pistol was soon in evidence, an
Spencer received a ball in his right sid*
which penetrated his stomach, causing
terrible hemorrhage, and the docto

Sunday morning. The shooting toi

in the wagon as he was being brought

The Coroner was notified, and order*
' the body brought into town, which w
done, Ned Smith received a ball in 1

The verdict of the Coroners jury is
