boy were in this building this
forenoon talking, and while we
were talking, Brammer got mad
and ordered all out of the house
by drawing his gun and we all
went fast; two minutes later he
met us across the street at the
post office and he wanted trouble
over there, but we reasoned with
him and kept It down; after that
| saw him again and he threat
ened to shoot me and Willie
Anderson; Bill Brammer was
very much intoxicated; that is
all | know about the case.
DR.. L. M. Asbury testified:
| live at Mike, and was called to
see Mr.. Anderson and found
him dead upon my arrival;
think from the nature of the
wound he would bleed to death
in 10 or 10 minutes, or less.
DR.. A. w. Zillman testified:
| live at Indian Grove and was
called to see deceased and found
him dead upon my arrival; I
was present at the autopsy; (
found a bullet hole in the right
lilac region, and upon making
an incision found that it
ranged upward and to the left
and that it cut the right common
lilac artery, and when we opened
the abdominal cavity found it
full of blood, and death was
caused from internal hemor-
rhage; the man that did the
shooting was standing to the
right side, nearly at right angles
of the one who was shot; it is
possible that they might have
been facing, and the fascia de-
flected the ball inwardly; think
death would occur in 5 or 10
minutes; the slab Anderson had
was about Z feet long and
about 7 or eight inches wide,
and heavy.
After hearing the above testi-
mony the coroner's jury, COM
posed of c.. S. Dameron, fore
man; c. Fletcher, U. G.. Mason,
R. L. Yancey, w. R. Guthridge
and E. R. Sommerfeld, returned
the following verdict:
''We, the jury, find that de.
ceased came to his death from
gunshot wound at the hands of
VIM. Brammer, and we further
find that the killing was unjusti-
fiable."
The first shot Brammer fired
struck Anderson on his check
book and did not enter the body.
The second shot took effect in the
lower part of the stomach, just
above the right groin, and rang.
ed to the left and inwardly and
upwardly to the backbone, near
which it severed large artery,
known to the medical profession
as the right common lilac ar
terry, and death was inevitable
from the nature of the wound.
Anderson was AZ years old
and had a wife and six chill.
dren. He was a hard worker,
but was disposed to be quarrel.
some when drinking. He was
engaged in the saw milling busi-
ness and had a couple of thresh-
ing outfits and also took many
contracts for county bridges and
executed his bridge contracts
promptly and well. He was
member of the w. 0. w. and the
NJ. w. A. and carried $1,000 life
insurance in each order.
Brammer is a generally
worthless character and was al.
ways looking for trouble. The
chances are that he has now
found a great deal more than he
was looking for.
Human life has been regarded
too lightly in Charlton county for
many, many years, and men have
