Anyone know who this Oscar Hatcher is? He can be found in the 1900 census in Meriden, Lauderdale Co, MS born in January 1877 in GA with both parents born in GA. However, he is not found on the Hatcher family file. The Sun (New York, NY) 10 Feb 1908, p. 1 WIFE SEES FATAL PISTOL FIGHT. Stands By When Husband Is Killed In Quarrel About Her. MERIDEN, Miss., Feb. 9. -- In a pistol fight between Covert Taylor, a prominent contractor, and Oscar Hatcher, a farmer, begun in the corridor of the Miazza-Woods office building at 5 o'clock this evening, Hatcher received wounds from which he died a half hour later and Taylor received a wound in the hand and a scalp wound just above his right ear. Hatcher's wife was standing at his side during the fight, begging the men to desist. Hatcher fired four shots at Taylor in quick succession. Taylor fired only once in the building, the bullet striking Hatcher in the left breast, penetrating the lung and coming out at the back. Hatcher ran out through the storm doors followed by Taylor. When he turned into a cigar store Taylor fired twice, one bullet entering Hatcher's neck and the other ploughing its way through his cheek and passing through the leg of James Hamm, a young man standing a short distance away. Hatcher ran to a drug store and fell on his face. He was hurried to a hospital, where he died within fifteen minutes. Taylor was locked up in the county jail. The trouble was about Hatcher's wife.
