Giles IrbN Killed.

Giles lrby, a negro convict, was shot
and Instantly killed yesterday after
noon by one Of the penitcntiary guards,
MIR. Westbury. The accident, for it
was an accident, occurred on the Broad
river road near the city pest house,
Instant from the city about a mile and
a half.
The coroner went out to view the
body yesterday afternoon and author
lZcd It's removal to the penitentiary
where the inquest will be held this
morning at 8 o'clock.
1T appears that the guards and con-
victs had just come out of an old ware
house where they had taken shelter
from the rain, and the guards were at
the, 'front.' the copvicts being at the
pack OF the house. Westbury was
handling the Winchester belonging to
Bray; he had his hand on the trigger
with the gun levcled in front of him,
when the rifle went off half cooked.
Simultaneous with the firing, Irby
came around the corner Of the house
and received the bullet in his side, and
was felled in his tracks.
lrby had been sentenced some Is
months ago to six years, having been
convicted OF criminal assault on ne
gro girl in Laurens county. The au-
thorlties state that his record at the
pcnitentiary had been such as to war
rants his transfer to the "trusty" list.
lrby was about 30 years old.
The affair is Il matter OF deep regret
to the guard, as well as to those rrc-
sent who are quite aware of its entirely
accidental character.
This morning the body will be buried
by the prison authorities.
The bullet passed almost through
the convicts body, killing him almost
instantly.-The State.
TO TIE ADVERTISER it looks like
criminal carelessness, and that the
guard should be under safeguard. A
"guard" should handle gun in way
If accidentally discharged it would do
no harm.
