declaration last night to Judge r. J..

Hurd was brought TO the city Sunday
night from Escambia. where he was
shot Sunday afternoon about 1880
o'clock by Kimmons. Three Of six
shots fired entered tho body Of the
unfortunate man, all entering from the
back and side and inflicted wounds
from which his physicians say he can
not recover. Kimmons and Spence are

The first known Of the shooting was
Sunday afternoon about o'clock
when a call was sent for DR.. Renshaw
TO come and attend Hurd, the infor-
nation being given that he had been
shot by Simon Kimmons. DR.. Rem

the two left the city, but on request
OF the sheriff the automobile went BY

reached Ferry Pass he learned OF this

learning that the father In law OF
Spence lived at Millview he sent

It was their mission, he declared, to see to it that the love of aviation becomes 1 d national sentiment in France !
