As Gentry first entered the house
he discovered Mann standing at the
fire place in his shirt sleeves calling
lor the dance, there being two ladies
standing between them. As soon as
he was discovered, Gentry says M inn
drew a pistol and some one hallowed
look out. Those in the house began
to huddle around in the corners" c f
the room and Gentry asked Mann to
‘.live up His reply was, "I will do no I
such ad- thing,” at the same time'
Gentry knocked Mann's pistol out of,
his face.
Mann refused to give up aud
the shooting began. Gentry says I
he backed Maun tothedvor where
two of his men were standing and
