Wounded Man
Dan Miller, who was shot through the
abdomen New Years night by Alexander
Donovitch, is able to be out on the streets.

badly lacerated by the bullet. No hope was
held out for him for many days. After Il
week he rallied very quickly. The police
have not been able to discover any trace

courts unless the injuries are fatal.
