Woods was proven to have had whisky on the ball grounds near Tebo, where the killing oecurred, and trying to sell same. It seems as though the two negroes had not been heard quarreling, and White suspicioned tnat Woods was going to shoot him when he saw him thrust his hand under his coat. Evidence proved that Woods had been in the habit of carrying a pistol under nis arm. A number of prominent men of Chilhowee and northern Tebo testified as to the reputation of both, and White was said to be peaceable negro, and Woods a very desperate one, having been in the penitentiary, a frequent visitor at the Johnson county jail, and had threatened the lives of several persons.
