ago, concerning an account owed Jones
by Williams, when this old difnculty was
renewed.
Zones, knowing what desperate man

rest Williams who had seemingly made
good his escape The sheriff was ac-
companied by several deputies. and upon
arriving at Creston they proceeded 10

distance from the town.
William was found at home, but met
the posse at his front door with a shot

shoot down the first man who took a step
toward him.
Hoping to succeed IN capturing Will

Columbia, S. c., June 2O.-Information

tunate shooting ARRAY at Lexington.
which viii, no doubt, have a fatal end
ing. 1t was one of those unfortunate
family affairs, and the young man whose
life is now hanging in the balance was
scarcely more than a boy. He was shot
down while in company with the sister
Of the young man who viii likely prove
10 be his slayer
The wounded man is the eldest son of
Col Caugnman, who is well known all
over the state, and the young man who is
IN jail is a son of the editor of the Lex
ington Dispatch, Mr.. Harman.
Snerln Drafts Of Lexington was in the
CITY to-day and gave meager details of
the unfortunate affair.
1t appears that for some time young
Saughman, who is about 20 years of age,
mas been paying attention to Mr.. Har-
mans sister, Miss Florence Harman. on
FRIDAY afternoon young Harman saw
,;iiLs -9us IlinaI taxing 70 ms SISTER near the
village school. He had forbidden Caugh-
man to talk to her, it is said. He walked
up to the pair, pulled out "a pistol and
shot Caughman. The ball entered the
mead, near the temple on the left side,
and ranged downward, making what is
considered mortal wound A physician
was summoned, and Caughman's uncon-
sclouS form was removed to the home of
his father, while Harman was taken to
the Jail
Young Caughman was still alive this
afternoon, so a gentleman who arrived
from Lexington tonight, said, but no
hopes were entertained of his recovery.
The young lady and two men were the
only eye witnesses to the tragedy.
Young Harman considers that he was
Justhable in shooting Caughman down,
and adds that any other man would have
done so under the circumstances. This
statement he considers sufficient for the
present.
