who did the shooting inserted the muzzle of
the gun through a crac c in the wall of the

left side. He lay there from Saturday night
until Mondsy afternoon wituout medical
attention, wheu two gentlemen from town
went out and sent for Dr. Edwards, who
picked out a number of shot and dressed
the fellow’s wounds. Highsmith seems to
have a l idea who shot him, and said to the
gentlemen if they would take him home he
would tell, as he was afraid if he told and
remained there the party would come back
and kill him. Some of the gun wadding
was found, which was made of a bill of
goods bought of Nelson & Peacock, and
putting the pieces together they found the
name to whom the goods were sold, t ut tue
gentlemen would not say whose Dame was
on the bill.
