SHOOTING AT BUCKNER, MO.
Charles Hamilton Does Bloody Work With a
Pistol.

Pistol.
Kansas City Times. 12.
Charles Hamilton, farmer living
near BuckDer, small town fifteen
miles east OF Independence, shot
and wounded John Martin and Miss
Mary Charltcn about 10 o'clock last
Saturday night as they were return
ing from Buckner.
Martin and Miss Charlton had
been to an entertainment at Buckner
and were returning home in buggy.
Hamilton followed them out of town,
it is said, in half drunken condi
ton. The first intimation the young
couple had of Hamilton's presence
was a shot from his revolver, follow
ed by two others in quick succession.
The first shot missed, the second hit
Martin, inficting a slight wound.
and the third struck Miss Charlton,
iniicting a wound that is expected
to prove fatal. When Hamilton be
gan shooting Martin whipped up his
horse and attempted to escape, but
had only gone short distance when
the condition of the wounded girl
made it necessary for him to stop
Hamilton, who had followed the
buggy, rode up and assisted Martin
to carry the girl into the house OF
A. j Burnley. After lending what
assistance be could, Hamilton left
and, hunting up the constable, gave
himself up. The constable did not
believe Hanilton's story and went
to the scene OF the shooting to IN
vestigate. On his return Hamilton
had disappeared and is still at large
Martin is the 17-year-old son Of
Postmaster Martin of Buckner, be-
tween whom and Hamilton father
there is some feeling. 1t is believed
this grudge between the two older
men was taken up by Hamilton, who
was trying to kill young Martin
when he fatally wounded Miss
Charlton.
Hamilton told the constable when
he was in custody that Ae thought
the couple were driving away with
his buggy, and that he shot to stop
them Young Martin insists that
the shooting was without provoca
ton. and claims that Hamilton was
under the influence of liquor at TIE
time OF the trouble. Martin is only
II wears old, while Hamilton is 45
Hamilton is still at large.
Hamilton is a well to do farmer
living near Buckner and is vel
known in Jackson county. He II
related to County Marshal Chlles
and is prominently connected with
some of the best families IN thu
section. A posse searched all day
yesterday for him, but did not sue
caed in locating him. It is possible
that he NAV come tC Kansas City tC
give himself up.
