KILLED ABOUT A DOG – Terrible Affray in Walker Co a Few Days Ago
Fayette Court House, Ala. Nov. 30 – News reached this place Tuesday night that 
HARMON HYDE, son of WM. A. HYDE, of this county, a young man about 21 years 
old, was shot and killed by Dr. D. H. CAMAK, near Eldridge, in the northeast 
corner of Fayette, or just over the county line in Walker County yesterday.  
The deceased’s uncle and aunt, JAMES H. HYDE and wife, left here last night to 
go to the scene of the tragedy; to attend the funeral services of the 
unfortunate youth. The facts of the killing, as reported here, are that young 
HYDE and his uncle, JOHN HYDE, and one VOLLEY EDNEY, were passing Dr. CAMAK’S 
house, and one of the three shot and killed the Doctor’s dog, when the Doctor 
came out and made some remark – did not learn what, and after the trio had 
left, they heard a gun or pistol fire at CAMAK’S house, whereupon they returned 
and raised a difficulty, and fired into the house, when CAMAK got his double-
barrel shotgun and killed HARMON HYDE. No other facts or particulars have yet 
been reported or ascertained.
