Tomorrow a. week ago, there was
another Sunday Fork killing. The
victim was shot sometime in the day
and died that night. Maj. j. B. Huck-
abee was summoned by phone Mon
day morning, and went down in COM
pany with Dr.. T. o. kirkpatrick, as
medical expert, and held an inquest.
1t. was shown there, that the day
before while three of Mr.. Critten-
denis sons, one about grown, and the
other two smaller, were walking
along the road they overlook a negro
and they walked on together, when
one of the boys asked the negro to
lend him his knife, it was handed to
him. After using it awhile the owner
asked for it, and the little fellow did
not give it up as quickly as the ne
gro thought he ought; he began to
knock and cuff the boy about, and
took it from him, and then the young
man told him he would not allow his
brother to be abused in that way,
then the negro pulled his pistol and
shot the young man and shot at the
two boys but missed them. He
then very hurriedly left for parts
unknown, where he is yet. The re-
mains of the deceased were carried
to Smyrna cemetery on Monday and
laid away, which was the second to
be placed in that cemetery in the
past few months, whose death was
caused by violence at the hands of a
negro, and both funerals were held
by the same minister, Rev. j. G..
Chandler.
