Terre Haute (IN) Weekly Express, February 23, 1870. The New Albany COMMERCIAL learns that on Saturday last a quarrel sprang up between two men named Marion Payne and Lewis Laird, two laborers employed on the farm of Lewis Sndyer about three miles south of Salem, in which Laird shot and mortally wounded Payne. There had been long a grudge between the parties dating as far back as the beginning of the war, but Payne had always endeavored to avoid an encounter with Laird. They were both refugees-one from Tennessee and the other from Alabama or Georgia. Up to Monday night, the murderer had succeeded in avoiding the vigilance of the officers who were on his track. He was supposed to be concealed somewhere in the neighborhood of Salem.
