Charlotte, Dec. 21—Disagreement over the color of Christmas decorations to be used in their barber shop in the Hotel Charlotte resulted in serious trouble for M.C. Bradley and Will Hayes, well known local barbers, this afternoon. As a result of the disagreement, Hayes is in a local hospital suffering with severe cuts and Bradley is at liberty under $300 bond on a charge of assault. He is also carrying a plainly marked eye and other bruises about the body.
Bradley and Hayes own and operate the Hotel Charlotte barbershop. There has been ad feeling between the two for some time, it was said, this culminating in a fight today after agreement over the Christmas decoration color scheme. Argument over a key to the shop this morning added further fuel to the smoldering flame, it is said.
In the argument over Christmas decorations it was said Bradley favored red as a predominant color while Hayes stood up for green.
