It appears that Rooncy prepared ~himself with two pistols, went ~into a cotton field where the young lady was alone and immediately on declaring his intention shot her down with one pistol and then fired the other tfter she fiel. He then went to the house of a ncighbor--told what he iad done-gave up the pistols, and said he desired to be hung. He also plead guiity as charged before the coin mitting magistrate.--fhe only reason given by the prisoner for the horrid act, was that ie desired to marry the girl, but she would not have him, and he preferred to kill her rather than she should become the wife of another.
