the room.
The shooting was quickly done and
was followed by the screams of the
son and daughter who were struck by
two of the flying bits of lead.
Wilmourth arose, struck light,
and stepped to the door 10 see a dark
form running towards the woods as
fast as his legs could carry him. The
plasterer had no weapon and saw
chase was useless, and let the would
be-murderer go.
Attention was turned to the two
wounded children. An examination
showed that the son was struck on
the right leg just below the knee. but
a he was lying down the bullet mere
ly grazed the leg, infiicting a long
wound about a quarter of an inch
deep.
The girl was struck in the feshy
part of the hip and but slightly in
jured. Bandages were placed on
the wounds and this morning medical
aid was procured. The injuries are
not serious. but might have been
more serious had tn man reckoned
correctly the location of the members
of the family.
Wilmourth is a man OF quiet man
ner and stated that he had no enc
mics in the city and had spoken to no
more than half a dozen people since
he arrived here several days ago.
He lives in the small one-room affair
merely because his furniture is not
here and he can not find a suitable
home. The house is some distance
from the regular road and outside of
the city limits, so the police were not
apprised of the matter until this
morning when it became generally
known.
Officer Thad Terrell heard of it and
reported it to Sheriff Potter who will
investigate.
Wilmourth thinks the shootist was
either drunk or crazy.
