While making up the bed In her room at about « o'clock Wednesday morn ing she heard a loud crash behind her and Immediately after something .whizzed over her head at a distance of about three Inches and lodged In the wall beyond. She turned and found that the window behind her had been broken and on examination of the wall found a lead ball lodged there. The ball had been' Bred- with terrific force and the lead was smashed out of shape. Miss Ferrell had stooped Just before the shot was fired and It Is probable but for this that the ball would have struck her In the head or neck. County Officers Whitfield and Polk Investigated the case and found eye witnesses who saw a boy fire the shot from the 1 rear of a river car ,-wlth a flipper. They placed young Wynne under arrest and he at first i denied knowledge of the shooting.
