WAYCROSS NEWS NOTES.
Further Details of the Discovery of
w. j. Smiths Body After Murder
Mna

"HS DOne.
Waycross, Ga, Nov. 9.-The body of
w. ]. Smith was found at Nichols
yesterday morning by early risers, and
upon investigation it was found that
some time during Thursday night
some one had fired two loads of buck
shot into the right side of the man.
Up to the last heard from Nichols
there is no clue as to who fired the
shot that robbed Smith of his life.
1t seems that the crime was COM
mitted some time during Thursday
night, presumably. about 10 o'clock. as
at that hour different parties heard two
gun shots.
No one suspected anything wrong,
as the shooting of guns is a common
thing in the little town.
The first persons out yesterday
morning discovered the dead body of
Smith. 1t was lying in front of Weeks
& Co.'S store, in what is known as
East Nichols.
Two loads of buckshot had evident
ly penetrated his left side, cutting a
tremendous hole through his body.
Death must have been instantaneous
gentleman just from Nichols says
the whole affair is shrouded III mys-
loss to account for the awful trag-
edY.
Smith was a merchant of the place.
Rev. c. L. B. Davis, who served the
Wesleyan Church here as pastor the
past two or three years, has gone into
the evnagelistic field. Rev. D. D. Mid
dleton has been assigned to the pastor
ate of the church at Waycross. Rev
E. NJ. Skipper has been assigned to
