Z fatal shooting affray occurred on
Sunday morning at Tate's Creek, eight
miles frem Lexington, KY, between
Regland Tadhunter and Jas. Robinson,
two farmers. 1t seems that some fox
hunters had torn down the fences, sep
arating their farms, and Tadhunter's
mules entered Robinson's corn field.
Enrsged at the damage done his corn,
Robinson shot and wounded three of
tie mules. While on his way to get q
doctor, Tadhunter met Robinson and
asked him If the mules had been shot
by him. Robinson answered affirma-
lively, and while endesvoring to draw
a.pistel, Tadhunter fired upon him, the
shots taking effect in mis- abdomen and
breast, from the effects of which he died
soon after. Tadhunter has been ar
Tested and committed to Jail.
