N.B. Hoard Shot and Killed While Trying to College Small Debt, March 30, 1922

Killed by Negro Woman

Mr. N.B. Hoard, who was connected with the City Market here for some time, and a son-in-law of Mr. J.W. Smith, was killed by a pistol shot fired by a negro woman in Greenville, S.C., last week. Mr. Hoard, it is said, had gone to the residence of the woman to collect a small debt. The first shot struck him in the face, and he died from the injury on Friday, after lingering two days. The burial took place Saturday at Greenville.
