The fight occurred in a barber shop on Court House square. Dr. William NOLIN and John TURNER have been deadly enemies for years, and their friends have always endeavored to keep them apart. They came together, however, and commenced shooting at each other. NOLIN was not hurt, but TURNER was shot through the heart and fell dead. By this time NOLIN had discharged all the leads in his revolver, but the fight was not over. Will TURNER arrived and attacked NOLIN.
