One MAJ Killed and Another Dfepeally
Wounded.
We learn from gentleman who recently
arrived from Terrebonne that Thursday .
man named Dickerson was killed, and w.
II. Keys, late compromise candidate for
the House of Representatives.. was MORALLY
wounded in Houma.
The circumstances Of the case, az related
to US. are that Keys and Dickerson, the
latter man who had been canyassing the
parish for the former during the campaign,
entered billiard saloon in Houma for the
purpose Of playing game of billiards. 1t
appears that Keys credit was not very
good. and the keeper of the saloon insisted
upon having some security that he should
be paid. and Keys accordingly placed in
his hands a revolver, to be redeemed
at the conclusion of the game by pay.
ment of the usual charge for the use
of the table. When Dickerson and
Keys were done playing the latter wanted
his revolver back, although he did not have
money enough to pay his bill, but promised
to pay at another time. This promise was
not good enough for the saloon keeper, and
he declared his intention of either getting
his money or keeping Mr.. Keys property.
Accordingly Keys and Dickerson attempted
to fOrcibly obtain possession of it. In the
melee, as before stated, Dickerson was
killed and Keys was mortally wounded.
Keys was a colored man and q member of
the Legislature Of 1873. During the last
he left the Republican party and
entered into what was known as the "Terre
bonnie Compromise Plan.' in consideration
of which he was conceded by the Democrats
the nomination TOR the House on the COM
promise ticket
