THE CARoLINE-CoUNTY SHOOTING CASE
On the 18th of September an affray occurred
at Cedar Fork, Caroline county, in which L.
j. Loyal shot Alexander England. The
circumstances as stated are as follows: The
parties had had a transaction and misun-
derstanding about some hogs, and on the
day named England came into Loyalps
store and words passed between them, du-
ring which England called Loyal liar.
Blows followed, and Loyal was knocked
down between two barrels. While Loyal
was down England raised stool to strike
him, but was pushed out Of the store
by another party. He seized an axe and
was in the act OF turning to renew the as
salllt when Loyal fired Mt him through a
window with shotgun loaded with bird
shot and wounded him in the leg and arm.
Loyall was not arrested ut the time, as he
came down to Richmond to attend to some
business, and thus kept out OF the way. A
few days since, however, he returned to
Caroline and surrendered himself to Cap.
tain Alensworth, justice of the peace, by
whom he was sent to the grand jury for in
dictment. England having recovered from
his wounds, Loyal was admitted to bail in
the sum of $3.50. A. c. Attkisson, Esq, OF
Manchester, is Loyalps legal representative
in the case.
