SHOOTING AFFAIR
tContinued from rage one.I

he commenced flring?"
Witness-"When the first shot was
fred they were about eight feet
apart"
Cathcart-"And at that time the
man was just getting up into the
carr"
Witness-"Yes, when the first shot
was fred"
Cathcart-"How did he go through
the carr"
Witness-"He went right through;
not walking, but on his hands and
knees, more like diving through"
After the fifth shot was fired, con-
tinued witness, McQuaid wheeled
round and ran for the sidewalk and
then ran down the sidewalk. The
other man came round from the rear
of the car and pulled out a revolver
from the left side of his coat and
ran over to the sidewalk, having Nc
QUAD cut off. When he reached the
| sidewalk he fired a shot at McQuaid.
McQuaid turned into a doorway and
witness saw Driver go to the door
and fire another shot. Witness did
not know if any of Drivers shots hit
McQuaid as he did not get off the
car.
| Driver then turned up Fort street,
but before he had reached the corner
he was met by an elderly white lady,
one of the saleswomen in a store there
of the sales women in a store there
and they spoke together. After the
lady had spoken to Driver he put his
revolver back again into his coat; it
! looked to witness as though Driver
had a holster there. At the moment
that Driver put his revolver away a
policeman arrived and made the ar
rest. Witness only saw Driver fire
| twice.
Cross-eXamined by Douthitt witness
stated that he stopped his car to
allow the Nuuanu car the right of
way, but when the conductor of the
Nuuanu car got off his car, witness
turned the power on, as by leaving
his car the conductor of the Nuuanu
car had given up the right of way
| Before the witness car had reached
the junction of the lines the conduc-
| tor of the Nuuanu car held up his
hand for witness to stop and he did
! so, his car coming to a standstill with
the fender almost level with the Nuu-
anu line, so close that the Nuuanu
car could not have passed had it
wanted to. This gave witness clear
view down Fort street, particularly on
the Eva side of the street.
Witness stated that although Nc
QUAD ran close up to the Nuuanu car
he did not board it, but turned and
ran away after firing five shots. Dri-
yer must have ran round the car just
as fast as McQuaid ran away for he
appeared at the end almost level with
McQuaid. Just as Driver came round
into sight again he drew his revolver,
but did not fire until he had reached
the sidewalk. McQuaid then had his
back to Driver
In answer to Cathcart, witness stat
ed that when McQuaid fired at Dri-
yer, the latter had his back towards
him. At the time of the shooting
witness thought it was a crazy man
firing, the way the shooting was done.
If McQuaid had had any cool blood
in him he would have been able to
have killed Driver with one shot. Wit
ness did not know it was McQuaid
firing until he turned to run away,
and then he recognized him.
DR.. Moore was next put on the
stand and stated that he examined
Driver in the Queens Hospital. He
was present in his Office when the
shooting commenced and saw Driver
start off ostensibly for the hospital.
| When he examined Driver in the hos
pital he found a bullet wound on the
left hand side of the back, near the
| pelvis. The shot was high and he
was unable to say where the bullet
had lodged. AS far as he knew it
had not been extracted. Witness was
standing in his office talking to
client when he heard a sound which
caused him to think that an automo-
bile tire had burst, but when it was
followed by other similar sounds he
looked out the window and saw two
men running, the hindmost man firing
at the other. The two men were run
ming towards car and the front one
stumbled before reaching it but re.
covered himself quickly and con.
tinued until he passed out of the wit
ness sight behind the car
Then witness saw the second man
stop and run back towards the side
walk, and the other man run round
the end of the car and shoot at him.
