K. James end his son, Darwin 1t appears
from the testimony submitted up to yes

back some months. The shooting grew
out of the purchase of a house by David
son which was sold for delinquent taxes.
The James claimed the property and have
~endeavored to eject Davidson for some
time. He has resisted all of their efforts
and has had the place FABRICATED for ON
time. Friday afternoon Davidson opened
fire on the elder James who returned the
same. About the same tinae young James
turned loose a shot gun on Davidson,
bringing him down. DaE idson continued
to fire until pretty well 6lled with lead,
and when assistance reached him it was

and a broken hip. The Report says:

that as be turned the corner # b street

pistol hand and spelling his aim. He
thought that this bullet glanced and

his pistol with his left hand and at
tempted to fire again, this time at young
James, when another shot struck him il
the leg and knocked him down. The
statement says that after he was down
the elder James fired three shots at him
and called him a vile name.
