EVANS FEARED
ROUGH HANDLING
And Was Brought to Taze-
well for Sdfe-Keeping.

Jeff Evans was lodged In jail here
Wednesday from Buchanan County for
safe keeping. Several days ago Evans
shot and killed man by name OF Har-
rison Street and it was feared that
Streets friends would attempt TO take
Evans from the Jail at Grundy and kill
him, so he was brought to Tazewell and
put behind the bars.
The trouble arose over a girl Evans
was paying attentions to young lady
OF Buchanan, when young man by
the name of Cook also began giving her
some attention. Evans became angry
and jealous at once. He started to see
his girl on Sunday, the 18th Of May,
when he met Street, who seemed to be
mad. Evans asked him what he was
mad about, which insulted Street and
he asked for an explanation. The ex-
PLANTATION he got was bullet i'm his
breast from Evans gun. Street turned
and ran for some distance with Evans
following him. After Street had run
several hundred feet he turned ON Ev-
ans and fired at him. Evans took TO ms
heels at this change in affairs, and after
running some distance he turned on
Street and fired the shot that killed him.
