Jackson Argus – Butts County April 8, 1898
Arthur Evans was killed Sunday afternoon in the northern portion of Monroe 
County by Joe Wooten.

It is reported that the two men became involved in a quarrel about a friend of 
Wooten, when Evans assaulted him with a knife, whereupon Wooten drew his knife 
and cut his antagonist to death.

Both men are well known and the tragedy has caused a sensation.  Immediately 
after the killing Wooten went to Forsyth and surrounded himself to Sheriff 
Newton.
