A Desperate Affray in a Kentucky Town Ends in Two Deaths. Article Text: Barboursville, Ky., Feb 7.--A desperate fight occurred at Mount Pleasant, in Harlan county, Monday night in which Will and John TURNER were killed instantly by Dr. William NOLIN, a prominent physician at that city. The fight began in a barber shop on the court house square. Dr. NOLIN walked into the shop and seeing John TURNER in the shop told him he would kill him. Both men began firing. Turner fell dead. NOLIN by this time had exhausted the loads in his pistol. Will TURNER, an uncle of John, arrived and attacked NOLIN. Neither had pistols, but used their knives. They had struggled over considerable ground, and when TURNER was killed they were in the middle of the street. John TURNER is a son of Judge George B. TURNER, a prominent attorney. It was John TURNER and his brothers who led the TURNER side of the famous HOWARD-TURNER feud in Harlan county a few years since. Wills HOWARD, the leader of the other side, was hanged in Missouri recently. This trouble is thought by many to be a renewal of the old vendetta. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ KY-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
