Two Men,Killed At Ashville.

A double tragedy was enacted at
Asheville last Friday night which re-
suited in the death of John Mister
and the fatal wounding Of Bunk Nc
Intire, who died Saturday morning.
The coroner's jury decided that Mister
was killed by Mcintyre, and that Nc
Intyre himself was killed by John
Pratt, while he (Pr~tt) was firing at
Nils er. This tragedy is one of the
most horrible ever recorded in Wes-
tern Carolina 1t seems that Bunk
Mcintyre had grudge against Mil
ster and secured his brother John Nc.
Intyre and his brother-in-law Pratt to
edo up" Mister. They met Mister
in Featherston' BARRON and after a
few words, the Mcintyre gang poured
a volley into Mister. John Mcintyre
did none of the firing but stood by and
saw it well done Mister fell dead
with eight bullet holes through his
head and body, any one of which
would have proved fatal. Pratt did
part of the firing and accidentally shot
Mcintyre. Mcintyre and Mister
are both dead. Pratt is now in Jail
for the murder of Mcintyre and is ac-
cessory to the murder of Mister.
