One was in the groin and ! the other was in the back. entering the body just where the suspenders cross ed The shot in this wound entered | the base of the right lung.
 | The same sort of testimony as to the nature of the two wounds was also given by Dr. B. M Kendrick. pr. ! KendriSk also testified to seeing Bish- op a short while before the shooting and few minutes after eight o'clock | come across the street to Hendricks drug store and stand with his arm about a post Reddoch was there and | the two spoke to each other.
