Banks shot and killed his cousin, Mr. Will C. Strickland. They were fooling with a gun and pistol, supposed to have been unloaded, when the sad occurrence took place. Coroner Hamil was at once summoned and held an inquest the following day. The verdict of the coroner’s jury was that the killing was unintentional. Both young men were sturdy and hard working, and the sad occurrence is much regretted.
