On yesterday morning we published a
short Item stating that Mr.. ID. A. Echols
a brother-in-law Of Mr.. Horace Hanon,
! Of this city, and man well-knOwn to
many in Cairo, had been shot at Fort
Jefferson on Wednesday night, but we
were unable to give any particulars re-
garding the misfortune. Since that time
We have learned the following facts:
Mr.. Echols is the keeper OF a hotel at
Fort Jefferson, and Is living in "a house
belonging to Captain Kendall. Joseph
Dupoyster, a man also well.known In
this city, had removed the fence from
around the house. The fence was owned
by Kendall, but was claimed by Dupoys-
ter, who in removing 1t, had left some
old refuse rails. Echols was at work
cutting some Of these rails into stove
wood, when Dupoyster drove up with q
wagon, and asked Echols what he wa,
cutting his rails up for. Eclols replied
that they were not his rails. Dupoyster
drew pistol from his pocket and said
"Put that rail on the wagon, or Cd
d-n You III Kill yOu." Echols refused
to do so, when Dupoyster shot him.
The ball struck Eohols In the back, touch
ing the spinal column, and it is said will
prove his death, as he was bleeding in
ternally yesterday morning. II Echols
does not die, he will De disabled tor life
II is said that Dupoyster and Echols have
been at loggerheads for some time.
