ner OF Claiborne and Common streets,
tonight. between James Cook. a well
known character and ward politician,

in the bar room with several friends
and was in the act of taking a drink
when Hudnall entered with a pistol
in each hand. Without saying a word

his pistol, began to shoot. Cook fired
four shots and Hudnali fired 1--WE. When

found to be dead. Cook was shot three
times, receiving a bullet in each leg
and one through the heart. Hudnaii
was shot once through the brain. II.
