George Lindsey Shot.

A rather mysterious shooting accur
re here last Saturday night. About II
o'clock George Lindsey aud 3. T. Jen
nings were walking aong The street
near the Farmers Merchautile Store
| when three shots rang out upon the mir
two of the balls went wild, but one OF
them struck MIR. Lindsey in the leg just
| below the knee. DR.. Peery was called
at once and the wounded man wac taken
care of and his leg dressed. From what
we can learn the bonei is fractured and
the effect indicates that fire arm OF
large calibre was used, All sorts of re-
ports have been current as to the shoot
ing, but none so far as we can learn
have any foundation. Mr., Lindsey Is
reported to be getting along fairly well.
Hs lives about mile north east of
town and is one of the best known mt n
il the community. No cause is known
for the shooting.
Later B. H. Nef was arrested here
Wednesday and tried before Squire
Kesuer. Two witnesses were introdu-
ced young Branscom and Walter Han
kla who happened to be near tho scene
of the shooting. Branscom testified
that Mr.. Neff shot from the upper porch
at the Alamo, Hankla was introduced
to confirm Branscom's testimony Con-
stable S.nyth took Mr.. Neff to Wythe
vile on the four O'Clock train where ht
fixed his bond and was bound over t.
court to await the action Of grand jury
Mr.. Lee Trinkle appeared for MI
| Neff and A. A. Campbell represented
| the Commonwealth.

A ghostly silence flls the earth.
