On Sunday afternoon a white man named Will Livingston shot Carl Varnadore twelve times, but without injury to the latter. The shooting took place near Towns, Ga., the cause of which we have been unable to learn. It seems from reports, however, that there was a woman mixed up in the affair. Livingston was in Baxley Monday in search of Varnadore, who he claimed had eloped with his wife.
