when going home, passing Mr.. Nights

and questioned him about his having
some one to bring in the straw which
he claimed did not belong to him.
Some hot words ensued that lead to
the shooting. After Stevenson fired
Mr.. Hight grabbed him by the shoul-

Stevenson managed to get away, and
reached his team before he could be
caught, and, whipping up his horses,
drove to his home, stopped only mo.

that he was going out to husk some
corn. Mr. Hight hurried to the mar

but Stevenson was not there, neither
could he be found in or around the
