HOMICIDE IN FLORENCE.
Sam NJ. Cook Dead; Seeby T. Burcl,
Charged with killing.

Florence, Nov. 29.-Sam NJ. Cook,
or this city, oversaer on tho planta-
ton Of Mr.. Seeby T. Burch, one mile
south Of this city, this afternoon was
shot and killed in the lobby Of the
Central Hotel on East Evans street.
Mr.. Burch is charged with the killing.
The men had previously had an alter
cation, 1t Is said, earlier In the after
noon. There are conflicting state
ments as to the nature of the alter
cation which led up to the shooting.
Several parties claim they witnessed
the affair. At the inquest the testi-
mOny was to the effect that the two
men had been standing on the street
talking. when Burch told Cook to
come with him. The two men walk
ed from the street to the east side
OF the lobby in the Central Hotel and
sat down in chairs. Burch, it seems,
endeavOred TO reconcile Cook as to
the trouble they had previously. but
Cook seemed to be drinking and
Burch was unable to do anything
with him. Burch then got up from
his seat and told Cook he would see
him q little later in the afternoon and
turned to walk of. Just then Cook
Burch. it is claimed. turned to Cook.
who was attempting to approach
with his hand in his pocket, and
Burch quickly drew his gun and be-
gan firing. ..
One Of the shots took effect a little
to the left in the neck. one in the left
breast, piercing the heart: one be-
meath the left shoulder blade. Anoth-
er wound was found by the examin-
ing physician. DR.. Simmons Lucas,
but he did not state positively that it
was the wound OF pistol bullet. DR..
Lucas stated that the wound through
the heart was sufficient TO Kill Cook
aimost instantly. As soon as Cook
was shot he turned and staggered out
to the sidewalk, falling face down
ward and expired within q few mo-
ments. AZ soon as the shooting was
over Mr.. Burch surrendered and was
taken in charge by the sheriff. Coro-
ner Gum was sent for and a Jury en-
panelled and adjourned to the county
court house, where the evidence was
taken. The verdict was that the de-
ceased came to his death by q gun
shot wound in the hands Of Seeby T..
Burch.
Judge Shipp granted bond in the
| sum Of $4,000, which was promptly
given and Burch was released.
Mr.. Burch Is q we'll known travel
ling salesman and farmer. He is a
son OF the late Seeb T. Burch, form
er coroner Of this county. and is wide
, ly connected with some Of the best
families OF this and Darlington coun-
ties.

but no children. The unfortunate
affair occurred just when the
