Mr. Z.T. Scott Meets Sudden Death

Mr. Z.T. Scott, a prosperous farmer and prominent citizen of near Hollonville, 
was thrown from his buggy last Friday afternoon and instantly killed.

The accident happened about two miles northwest of Concord. Mr. Scott was 
driving a very spirited horse when a dog ran out in the road and he fired at 
it. The report of the pistol frightened the horse and he ran away, throwing Mr. 
Scott out. In falling, he fell on his head and broke his neck.

Mr Scott was the youngest of four brothers who served in the late war in 
company H Forty-fourth Georgia regiment. He was a widower with several 
children. His death has caused much sadness.
