ut 10 O'Clock Saturday night. 1t may
DE called an accident and such It may
have been but from the best information
obtaiDuble it appears that il wRs an in
excusable piece Of carelessness,for which
! the pcrpertrntor should receive due pun
isiment.
The victim is Miss May Shields, aged
Is years, and the wound is in one of the
hips. 1t is sufficiently serious as to
require the attention of tlSe hospital au-
the man who did the shooting
Cecil Williams, John Root and other
young men of that neighborhood eomPos-
ed a crowd that had cougregated in front
and having a boisterous time. Rogers
of the house of Al Rogers in the road
objected to the liberty taken and ordered
them away. They failed to see it that
way, claiming they were on the public
highway, and they indulged in some in
solent language toward Rogers. This
raised his ire and he proceeded to per-
NIT n murderous spirit to seize his bosom
He went into the house, grabbed a %
clliber rife, went out again and begun
firing promiscuously into the crowd, and
did not apear to be at MI concerned as
to the direction of theshots or who tile
bullets might strike.
Miss Shields was standing on Edward
HALLS porch directly across the street
with Mr.. Hall and Mr.. and Mrs. Lloyd
Anderson. They were nll watching the
proceedings When Rogers began firing
they all retrcated toward the inside of
the house, and the girl was just entering
the door wien she was bit with bull
let.
The wound was considered of such q
nature that she was brought to the hess-
lei hospital here 1t was found upon ex-
animation that the injury is bad but not
such as to endanger her life. An opera
tion was performed Sunday at the hos
pital and the bullet extracted.
The victim of this careless shooting
/. the daughter of Charles Shields, de-
ceased. and her mother resides near Sar-
dis. The girl makes her home with Mr.,
and Mrs. Anderson at afarshyille. She
was discharged from Kcssler hospital
about three weeks ago, after having
undergone an operation for a throat
trouble and had been cured.
Rogers is at his home and at large, no
