A murder was committed upon the body of Mr. Gilliam of Henderson County on the 9th inst. It appears that a difference of opinion had taken place between Gilliam and a Mr. Smith at Lexington (TN) on the Saturday previous, and on the succeeding Monday after they had started home and were pursuing their journey, the quarrel was again renewed, when Smith shot Gilliam on horseback. It may be proper to say that after the apprehension of Smith it was discovered that a wound had been inflicted on his arm and also on his thigh.
