HILLsBoRo, Tex, Nov. 27.-Infor-
nation reached here from Itasca yes
terday evening of the death of j. j.
Hatcher at that place yesterday morn
ing by shooting The news created a
sensation, for the unfortunate young
man was raised in this county and for
ten years past has been familiar fig
ure in Itasca and Hillsboro business
circles. At the time of his death and
for several years past he has been in
charge of the hardware business of
j. r. Thompson at Itasca. He was
an exemplary young man in every
respect. If he had care it was un-
known to his friends and relatives
here, all of whom, in the absence Of
particulars from Itasca, are at a loss
to account for the act. 1t is known
that he was much attached to Prof. n.
j. Foster, who died at Italy recently,
and it is said that he had been a
changed man since that event. The
deceased was unmarried and about 30
years OF age.

twice through the side and breast.
Odds finally succeeded in getting his
pistol out and shot young Massey three
or four times, each shot taking effect.
The elder Massey, seeing his SON fall

both taken effect, made an attempt to
get out OF the front gate when ODDS,

with two bullet holes through him,
raised his revolver and fired twice,
both shots taking effect in the elder
Massey's side, from which he died {
