FATAL AFFRAY NEAR CAMERON The
people Of our neighboring village Of Cam.
eron are Just now considerably worked
up over the serious result OF an ARRAY
which occurred in that vicinity recently.
The particulars Of the ARRAY, as we un.
derstand It, are about as follows: Last
Saturday night, as Benz. Evans was in
the act Of mounting his horse to return
home from church, near Wind Ridge,
about eight miles from Cameron, Ira
Jabes stepped up behind him nnob'erved
and struck him on the head with a rock,
breaking his skull. It appears that some
time ago Evans and Jabes had quarrel,
in which the latter was badly worsted.
Jabes, still thirsting for revenge, waylaid
Evans aud Immediately fled the country.
1t was not thought at first that Evans
was seriously hurt but he gradually grew
worse until last evening about six
o'clock, when he died. Jsbes had not been
arrested up to late hour yesterday af.
ternoOn.
