G.. B. BARRON is SHOT WHILE
AT HIS FARM NEAR CHESTER
Prominent Union Lawyer Slightly
Wounded BY Confederate
Veteran.

Chester, Nov. 16-"Doctor" Brooks,
native of North Carolina, and Con-
federate veteran of rs years, slightly
wounded G. B. Barron, a Union law
yer, today near this city by shooting
him below the left shoulder. 1t was
at first thought that the bullet had
pierced some of the arteries above the
heart, but an examination made by
DR.. A. M. Wylie proved that in all
likelihood, unless the wound became
infected, it would not prove serious.
Mr.. Barron with his brother, p. d.
Barron, owns and operates the Kell
plantation, in the Rossville commu-
nifty, Chester county. 1t seems that
Sunday Mr.. Barron had experienced
some difficulty with Brooks and told
his superintendent, Thomas Barnes,
that he intended getting rid of Brooks.
Today he went to the house where
Brooks was staying to make him
leave the farm, and, it is said, they
became involved in an alteration and
some shots ensued.
Mr.. Barron was brought to hos
pital here. A report from there to-
night stated that he was resting
easily.
Late advices from the bedside of
the wounded man are to the effect
that he is rapidly recovering, and will
soon be out of danger.

that he could write without trouble or

among his pillows. He used to aver
that most Of his best thoughts came to

him in no mood for commencing his

that bed was the very best place for
