Sensational Shooting Atlair-A Young
Lady in the Case.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
Memphis, November "Details of
sensational shooting affair at Kerr
vile, Tenn, about sixteen miles from
here on the line of the Chesapeake d
Ohio railway, have reached this city.
The killing originated in the down
fall of ayoung lady of that place,
who recently gave birth to child. G..
w. Edwards was charged with the
seduction OF the girl by the irate
father, who vowed he would have the
life of the seducer, but offered to
compromise If Edwards would give his
note for $500 which he alleges was
done to avoid public scandal. In the
meantime, friends of Edwards
claimed that young man named Sam
Roberts was the father of the child,
between whom there was existing an
old grudge. Yesterday Roberts as
saulted Edwards with violent Ian
guage, when the latter said he would
protect himself. Shortly after the con-
versation, they again met on the road
side and the latter was
in the act of reaching for
his pocket when Roberts drew u
double barrel shotgun and filed him
with squirrel shot. A repeater was
found on the person of Roberts after
he fell. Edwards came to this city to-
day and gave himself up to the sheriff
of the county.
