Our readers wiki remember the
circumstances uDder which Nit
Carter killed Holcomb in Colum bla
some four months since. Carter
was badly hurt himself and came to
his relatives in this county,
where he has been until last week.
He has been engaged at work upon
the pike this side of Elkton for
some time, until week or two ago,
when, as we understand, he procur-
ed money and started for Texas.
He went by Columbia and on last
Thursday evening at 6 o'clock was
shot and instantly killed by John
Holcomb, brother of the man whom
he had killed. Reports as to the
cause and circumstance of the kill
ing are so conflicting that we know
nothing. He was killed in VIM.
Porter's saloon, Holcomb emptying
both barrels of shotgun into his
