kept toge! her in the Hawthorne hotel
Monday night.
"Jim" Chapel, an old colored man
of about Is years, came to Pollard's
shoe shop to see about some shoes
that Pollard had repairing for

owed Chappell for digging a
grave for one of his children,
ana after the shoe work was done
Chappell asked Pollard to let the
shoe work go on the old account,
whereupon Pollard became angry and
elected the old man from the shop.
In the meantime the old man had
left some groceries in the shop and
came back two or three times after
intervals of some minutes to get these
groceries. He stated to Pollard that
he wanted his groceries and Pollard
told him if he came back he would
kill him. Chappell started back to
get the articles and Pollard shot and
instantly killed him
The jury found Pollard guilty of
