(Special) Full particulars of the killing of Robert Whatley by Charles Glover, colored, near Alomn a few days ago, have not been obtained. The facts so far developed show that there was a party of negroes who had been gambling nearly all night and Whatley had been selling Whiskey to them. Charles Glover had won the money of another negro and Whatley was giving the looser some points about how to play cards, when Charles Glover asked Whatley what He had to do with the matter he replied that he had nothing to do with the matter, but was willing to "stake" the other negro in the game between him and Charles. Charles Glover then cursed him and threatened to kill hi, and in a few moments said that he would kill him and any way, drew his pistol and fired on Whatley, killing him almost instantly. Charles Glover has not yet been captured and his whereabouts is unknown. It is suspected that several other negroes were in some way implicated in the killing, and two have been arrested and lod! ged in Jail.
