I do not research this name...just found the article by accident.

The Jackson Sun" (Jackson, TN) - Friday, Sept. 29, 1876

Nashville American - Two young men by the names of Charley George and James Eskew got in a dispute Wednesday evening near Laguardo, regarding some land titles. Angry words were passed, when George, who was riding a horse, moved in his saddle. Eskew, thinking he was armed and trying to draw his weapon, raised his gun, a double barrel shotgun and emptied the contents at him, one load taking effect in the head, the other in his side. He dell from his horse and died without a struggle. Both were residents of Wilson County.
