605. I reproduce the court's state- ment of the case : — "This is an appeal from the Circuit Court of Kemper County. Appellant was convicted of murder and sentenced to im- prisonment for life. He appears in this court without counsel. The facts are briefly these: One, Nicholson, a white man, accompanied by his little son seven years old, was driving an ox team along a public road; he had occasion to stop and the oxen were driven by his son; defendant, a negro, also in an ox wagon, was going alo...ng the road in an opposite direction, and met Nicholson's wagon in charge of the little boy. It was after dark, and when the wagons met, according to the testimony of Nicholson, the defendant insultingly demanded of the boy to give the way, and cursed and abused him. Nicholson, hearing the colloquy, hurried to the scene and a fight ensued between him and Maury, in which the latter got the ad- vantage, inflicting severe blows upon Nichol- [147] The Negro Problem son.
