Terrible Tragedy,

\ special dispatch from Greenville
to the Columbia Register says, Rev. J.
7. Burdine, a Baptist preacher living
in Pickens County last Thursday
while in drunken frenzy, shot and
killed his wife and then shot himself,
it is supposed fatally. It appears that
he has been on spree for some days.
Thursday, without warning, he drew
his revolver and shot his wife through
the brain, almost instantly killing
her. Somewhat sooered by the deed,
and realizing his crime, he placed the
muzzle OF the pistol to lis own head
and fred, falling by the side OF his
dead wife At last accounts ne was
living, but unconscious. The weapon
used was was 80 calibre Smith s. Wes-
son pistol. The cook was the only
witness OF the tragedy. The shooting
attracted tae attention OF members of
the family and the alarm was given
and neighoors collected. The excite
ment and indignationof the community
was intense, and the belief that Bur
dioe would die saved him from lvnch
ing. Hrs. BUrndiue is sister OF Ma
] or Stewart, clerk OF Pickens county
court, a family OF the highest respec
tability. Mr. Burdine has always had
the respect Of the community IN which
he lived. Unfortunately, ne became
Il victim to the drink laoit. When
Sooer he was kind afectionate ma2
and we'll liked. The killing was a. OR
near Pumpkia Town, about ten miles
from Plckens Court House. From
the feeling of the people cf Pickens,
if Burdine RECEIVERS from his wound,
it Will 90 hard with him.

Chief of Police Fischer and escorted
to the jail. The feeling against the
murderer ran very high, and there
we're threats Of lynching. All it
needed was for some one to assume
leadership in the matter and Butler

thirty years of age. He is a desperate
fellow, and would have given trouble
