Chas. Nash, Negro Stabbed To Death Tuesday Night

Negro Meat Cutter in Winnfield Twenty-One Years Killed By Negro Woman

Charlie Nash, about 50 year old negro, was stabbed through the heart Tuesday
night by Sarah Davis, negro woman in the T. & G. Quarters.  It was reported
that the negro man had his hand over his heart when the woman thrust a long
butcher knife through his hand and body.

Nash has been a meat cutter in Winnfield for about twenty-one years.  For some
time past, he has been employed by W. F. Dickerson's Market and Grocery.

After the man's death, the negro woman was arrested by Marshal Jolly and
turned over to the sheriff's department.
