and took lodgings at boarding house in the yicn-
ity Of the Memphis ard Charleston dspOt. Being
without employment, the two took stroll towards
the country Tuesday afternoon, aud retraced their
steps in the direction of the city Tuesday evening.
The deceased had shot gun his possession at the
time. When the two reached the point at which
Vance street incrsecis the Memphis and Charleston
Railroad they lay down in dirt car in tina, locality,
and fell asleep About one o'clock at night, gun
was discharged, the report Of which aroused Smith,
who AYERS that he Jaw some escaping over an
adjoining fence. Smith turned around to his COM
