DIES FROM ASSAULT
Frank Finley, Of vinton, Died Of
Lockjaw From Wound Received
When Shot July by Night Watch.

| Special TO Times Republican
Vinton, July 16.-Frank Finley. aged
%, who was shot by Night Watchman
Baumgardner on the night Of July 4,
lockjaw which developed from blood
poisoning. which in turn was caused
by the presence of a piece of cloth in
the wound. The officer whose bullet
caused the young mans death has de-
manded that an inquest be held by the
coroner for the purpose of absolving
him from blame, If possible. Senti-
ment seems to be divided as to wheth-
err the officer will be even bound over
to the grand jury. An interesting
phase of the situation is the report
that the mother of the boy has threat
ened vengeance upon the slayer of her
son.
The officers bullet entered Fnley's
breast just below the heart. 1t fol-
lowed a rib and lodged in the back.
When the patient failed to recover as
he should, an operation was performed
by surgeons last Friday, 1t was then
discovered that the bullet had carried
with it piece of cloth which had
caused infection. The wound was
thoroughly cleaned, but it appears that
the poison from this infection had al
ready entered the system, bringing
about blood poisoning and lockjaw.
Death occurred Sunday evening at $50
ending. a period Of agonizing suffer-
ing.
While there is some talk derogatory
to the action of the night Waterman,
public sentiment generally seems to be
back of the officer. 1t is the general
impression that he shot in self-de-
Tense and did 80 only to save himself
from death. As it was he was bru-
tally assaulted. Finley is said to have
pounded him over the head with his
own club and to have used knife At
the coroner's inquest all of these facts
will be brought out clearly by the tes-
timony of witnesses. 1t is probable
that the inquest will be held this aft
