which he was using with altogether
too much carelessness to suit the ideas
of the people living In the vicinity
where the occurrence took place.
Hoard had been drinking and got in

the Lewis residence, on Greenwood
avenue, in the course Of which the
woman threw stone, hitting her lieee

went home and procured a revolver
after which he started out to find his
wife with the view of avenginR the in

had gone 10 the house OF one OF the
neightors for protection when her hus-
band left her, came up the street
about this time and as she neared the
house Hoard fired at her. but fortu-
