"A correspondent Of the Mobile Advert
SER writing from Kemper county, Mississip
pi, relates the following: e e,
stopped at Mr.. James Ruperts ulan,a
ton on Saturday night, and found Mrs. Hall
the wife of the overseer, in great distress
about her husband, who had gone 70 DE
kalb. She said that Mr.. Bias had rentej
part of Mr.. -Ruperts land from Mr.. Hall
and not long since some of the gentlemen
in the neighborhood, suspecting Bias of ira.
ding with their negroes set q tran for him
and caught him. Hall, seeing that Bias
must leave theelace, bought the crop that
was growing on the place, to secure the rent
tor MIR. Rupert, because he, az Mr.. R. agent,
had rented it to him. Some words passed
between DR.. Brown and Hall, upon Halls
purchase of the crop, and Hall was accused
OF being accessory to Bias 'rascality, or con-
niving Mt it, which exasperated Hall, and
he put a pistol against DR.. Browns breast
and snapped cap; whereupon warrant
was issued to arrest Hall, who said that he
would not be taken.
had not been in the house more than
an hour when Halls horse returned without
him, but with the saddle and bride on.
Mrs. Hall exclaimed that her husband WAS
Killed; l then sent out n boy to look for
him. He returned with Mrs. Halls father
who was with Hall, and reported that the
latter was killed. 1t appears that the sher-
id, Mr.. Gully, and four men were in pursuit
of him, aud met him and his fsther-in-law
coming from De Kalb-about a mile and
half from DeKalb. Hall rushed past them;
Guliey then wheeled and rode up, and sum-
moned him to surrender, telling him that he
had men enough to take him, and did not
want to kill him. Hall swore he would not
be taken, and fired his pistol at Gully, which
had two balls in it; one ball shivered lis
knife and the othes took effect in the right
groin. Gully then rode up to him again
and presented his pistol, intending to shoot
first, but (as Gully told mo himself) Hall
was ready to fire again, and both fired at
once. He is not sure that he shot Hall. but
Halls shot took effect in Gully's left arm,
sllivering the elbow, and one shot lodged in
the arm. Gully, finding his bride arm use
less, dropped his pistol and caught the bri-
die rein with his right hand, and then pur-
sued and rode ahead of Hall. Hall then
seized Gully, and they both fell to the ground.
Gully called on his friends to shoot him,
as he had nearly been killed. Hall see.
ing one in the act of shooting, rushed at
him. It appears tho man shot Hall through
the left hand, and finding himself disabled,
leaped fenco about ten feet off, at which
time the man do notsecollect his name)
fired his second barreT(a shot gun) into
Halls back, just below the neck. Hall fell,
and by the time that he could be examined
was dead. s..- 49,.
