News reached this city yesterday morning that Tom Marlborough had shot and instantly hilled his father. in. law, w. l.. Taylor. at Whitmorp. Deputy Sheriff Murphree and Coroner Alley went over on the morning train, the former to arrest Marlborough. and the latter to hold an inquest.

The next morning about o'clock as Taylor was walking along the mill platform, Tar. orough came upon him with a shot gun, and without further to do, fired. the load taking effect in Taylor's head. He fired three other shots, but it is thought that the first, only. took effect. The gun was loaded with large squirrel shot. After the shooting Marlborough took to the woods, and at this writing has not been apprehended. Taylor died almost instantly.
 The coroners jury returned verdict to the effects that Taylor came to his death from the effect of gun-shot wounds at the hands of Marlborough.
