shooting Near COlIIervlIIe, Tenn


The Collisrville Herald gives the fol-
lowing account of the shooting of H. v.
Swift by negroes near that town some
days since. Says the Herald:
On Tuesday, the 18th inst, Mr.. H. V.
Swift, a prominent planter and highly
respected citizen, living near Collierville.
was shot and badly wounded by a negro
named Alexander Bell. The boy a
hirc / to Mr.. Swift, or cropping with him.
and became dissatisfied and resolved to
leave the premises. Consequently, he
vent up into Fayette county and pro-
cured teams and wagons with which to
move, and came back to Mr.. Swifts
house at about two o'clock at night,
when Mr.. Swift told bin to wait until
morning and settle up, then he could 60.
The boy reached back into the wagon
and got a double.barrel shotgun, which
was loaded with buck shot, and fred on
Mr.. Swift, five balls taking effect in his
legs and thies, which produced very
painful wounds. We are informed BY
his phyaician that he will likely recover
loon. Mr.. Swift fred two shots at the
negro after he had shot him. The negro
is yet at large, but was being pursued
at last accounts by a posse who we're but
a few hours behind him.
On Saturday last Constable T. j. Nc.
Donald, of Collierville, lodged in Jail in
Memphis Willis Mayfeld, colored, who
was arrested as an accessory to the shoot
ing Of Mr.. Swift. Two other negroes,
Round Davis and Bob Patterson, we're
also arrested. The former wgs discharged
and the latter released on bill. Clifton
Alexander Bell is still at large, having
been chased past Forest Hill, and last
seen on the edge Of N~onconnah bottom.
Mr.. Swift, though pierced by Eve bullets.
is still alive, and some hopes Of his re.
coyery are entertained. BE is shot in
both thighs.
