ONE WAY TO EJECT A TROUBLE¬ SOME TENANT. Accounts of the Shooting of a Negrroe in Pike County on Monday. Special to the N T aws. J Molena, GA.,June 5.--Early jester day morning B. B. Bagwell shot and killed Bill Wotnble, colored, about two miles from Molena, Pike (Joun ty. It seems that Bagwell and the negro, Womble, had a difficulty on Saturday last, in which Womble drew a gun on Bagwell and cursed, abused and threatened to shoot him. Monday morning Bagweli and his wife went to Womble’s house, the negro living on Bagwell’s place, to order him off, when the difficulty was renewed and the shooting took place. Bagwell is supposed to have been under the influence of whisky. There are various reports of the af fair, but the above is probably the nearest correct. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. Flat Shoals, Q\.,.June 5.— A most desperate affair occured near Molena on yesterday morning, which was not known until late in the evening. It was from all aocounts a cold blooded murder. It appears that Blake Bag well and a negro by the name of Bill Wombell bad some falliug out on Saturday in a settlement about chopping cotton, and yesterday morn ing the affair was settled, it was thought, to the eatia faction of both parties, and the negro was to go back to chopping eotton. After this was arrainged the negro was standing in the door with his left arm propped against the door, everything being peaceful. He drop ped his head and as he d ; d so Blake shot him while he was not looking, through the left breast, and the negro fell and as he fell be called to his wife that^Mr. Blake had shot him. The negro spoke no more but was dead by the time his wife got to him. Blake turned and rode off, Mr. Bagwell, it seems, has raised several rows since last Saturday even ing, with both white and black. There has been nothing done yet— no inquest held—so one can not tell just how it will turn out. Your cor respondent will attend the coroner’s inquest and report same as soon as it takes place.
