Charles White, both colored, were
the participants. 1t occurred in King
Hatcher's barber shop, on Monday
evening last, Poole receiving wou1ds
of serious nature. 1t seems that
Poole had entered Hatcher's shop to
see friend, with whom he became
engaged in friendly scuffie. White,
temporarily in charge of the shop,
ordered Poole out, who refused to go.
A row naturally ensued. White
struck out from the shoulder. Poole
threw his antagonist into chair,
who, reaching to the shelf under the
mirrow W, got hold of razor. Poole
drew a revolver and ordered him to
stand his distance, when White rushed
at Poole with the razor and inflicted
several ugly gashes upon his face and
body. One of the cuts extends from
the left side of the mouth circling
around the chin to the windpipe.
There were several other gashes on
the face, head and arm, and seric us

the man from being disemboweled.
White was arrested. At last accounts
Poole was reported to be lying in q
