Reed killed himself Friday night on the family plantation, Greenwood, at half-past eight o'clock. He had been drinking heavily, and he met a young colored woman, with whom he was evidently familiar, in the road and called her to him. He shot her through the temples and then put the pistol to his mouth and fired. Death was instantaneous. His funeral takes place at Grace Cemetery, this afternoon at 5 o'clock. He was a son of the late Chas. H. Reed, and was aged 23 years and 4 months.
