NEGRO BOUND OVER
TO SUPERIOR COURT
Fred Miller, Without Attorney,
Will be Tried This Falls For
Shooting Peter Lund

Fred Miller, the negro who is
charged with attempt to murder Peter
Lund over the Hub pooroom, on
the night of July 10. was bound over
to Superior Court Monday afternoon
by Justice Heman d. Hunt. His trial
will be some time this fall. He has
no attorney
The testimony taken Monday shows
that Lund awoke in the night and
seeing Miller trying to get his money,
resisted him and was shot, the negro
making his escape. That morning the
police saw the negro and a white man
together, and saw Miller throw away
a revolver, one chamber of which was
found empty. The men were released
but later re-arreSted.
A shell was found in his pocket, the
bullet Of which would correspond to
one found in the room where the
crime was committed. He was held
on this evidence.
