Ouachita Telegraph
Saturday, January 14, 1871
Page 1, Column 3
	Our parish was last Friday the scene of one of those disagreeable acts 
that occasionally throw communities into a wild state of excitement, in which 
the justification of the act of killing finds its advocates, while the opposite 
also has the same.
	It is only our duty as a journalist to state the fact of the killing 
without expressing an opinion.
	Dr. Chapman shot and killed Mr. R. Stoddard, a cousin of his, and for a 
long time a supposed warm friend, and inmate of his house, but who it is 
generally believed grossly violated the sacred rules of hospitality.  It is 
needless for us to say more, and respect for the parties to this sad affair, 
prompts us to throw a veil over it, at least for the present. - Richland Beacon.
