The origin Of the trouble dates back
eight or ten years to the time when Col.
West and Capt. Langtord, both deceased,
fathers of the participants in yesterdays
conflict, lived ON adjoining plantations,
when they had dispute which resulted
in feud, which has never ceased to exist
between their families. This illfeeling
was intensified last fall by the publication
during the political campaign Of eontro-
versial letters OF apeFsonal character by
John West and William Langtord in the
Madison Nee Era and the Recorder. Sub
sequently the families had conference at
Townsville, Ca, looking TO compro-
mise, and until yesterday II was thought
the family differences had been amieably
adjusted.
Both families are among the oldest and
most prominent in the county, and are
in comfortable financial Circumstances.
Marital ties connect each with several
other families OF prominence, aud there
are fears In some quarters that the ven-
detta viii lead 10 still more serious con-
sequences. The coroner was notified this
morning, and left Madison TO bold an in.
