BLOODY AFFRAY.
A Negro Killed and n White MAN
- Severely Wounded.


A bloody and fatal affray occurred near
Franklin, in this State, on THURSDAY, De-
tween white man and a'negr', which re-
suite d in the killing of the latter and the
severe wounding of the former. The facts
in the case, as We lesl q them, are about
these: Mr.. Perkins Nolan was hunting on
horseback, four miles from Franklin, IN
the neighborhood Of Mrs. Vaughn's, when
he ives attacked by a negro man nAneo
/ Green Vaughn. The negro hrst snot d.
Mr.. Nolan and made his horse rear ana
plunge till he was thrown upon the grouno'
Ore of the negvo's shots tc ok effect In
Mel MS thigh and inflicted severe ana
painful wound. After being thrown rom
his horse the negro followed him up ana
commenced beating him Durlng the
semitic that ensued Nolan drew knife ana
stabbed Vaughn, which put quletus 10
the struggle. Yesterday morning some of the
neighbors went to the fcene OF the en-
counter and found the negro dead nom
the effect of the stab received IN the al
fray. Though the wound of Mr.. Nolan IN
the thigh is a very severe one, 1t Is NOT
dangerous, and he will recover. We did
not learn the cause that led to the fatal
and bloody difficulty. We take the occa-
sion TO remark that such reDcounters as
these clearly demonstrate the necessity OF
stringent measures to prevent the lndls-
criminate carrying of deadly Weapons oy

how and when to use them, and whose
