Carroll of Laurens county, was killed by Mr. Curtis Batts under the following circumstances. Dr. Carroll was on his way home from Dublin, and called at the house of Batts after nightfall. Batts, hearing a noise in his yard, and the dogs barking furiously says he hailed the comer twice, and getting no answer fired upon him two shots from a double barrel gun through the window and then hearing nothing more went to bed. The next morning when he opened his door he found Dr. Carroll on the floor dead. Additional Comments: Transcriber's note: I'm not related to or researching the Carroll or Batts families.
