A NEGRO BADLY SHOT
He Tells Strange Story-Wila De-
MERCK, a Negro. Shot Twice Within
Two Weeks.

Will Demerick, South Carolina ne
gro who has been in Salisbury for some
time, is in serious condition, the re-
suit of being shot Saturday night and
his story if true, shows that some en-
emy has designs upon his life The
officers attach no credence to his state
ments, however.
Two weeks ago Demerick was shot
in the fieshy part of the right leg just
below the hip, the bullet passing
through. At the time he told friends
here that some unknown person had
secretly assaulted him at Spencer. The
wound gave him but little trouble and
he was out the following day. Now
he is dangerously wounded. To the
officers he says that while he was
standing on the platform at Green's
boro Saturday night he felt a sudden
twinge Of pain in his back and found
that he had again been shot. Strange
~, he did not report the matter to the
Greensboro officers but came on to Sal
isbury. The bullet entered the left
side of the back and lodged in his
groin.
The officers here strongly suspect
that Demerick was in both instances
shot while attempting to commit burg
larry. His Greensboro story is so high
ly improbable that they give it not the
slightest consideration. In the mean
time Demerick, badly injured as he is,
refuses to qualify the statement he has
made to them.-Salisbury Post.
