says that Draper arrested his man and
was on his way to Rerwind with the
a friend of the man, who insisted that
Draper release the prisoner. Draper
Is said to have refused. whcreupon the
friend OF the prisoner opened fire on
Draper with shotgun. Draper threw
up his arms to protect his face, and
the full load of shot entered his arms

The other version OF the shooting

Draper drew his revolver and fired,
