Richard Foskey Killed Yesterday

Richard Foskey, white man about 45 years old, was shot and instantly killed Thursday afternoon by Dessie Glover, young white man, near the home of Foskey.

Information of the details of the slaying are meager, but it is said that an argument ensued between the men about the dipping of turpentine gum.

Both men are members of old and prominent familes in this section and the tragedy is a very regrettable affair.

Glover has been placed in jail on a warrant charging him with murder.
