Miss Bertha Woodland, daughter
of Capt. Chas. T. Woodland, OF
Lower Hooper's Island, was shot
through the shoulder yesterday
morning about ten O'Clock, by Rich
ard Lewis, a married man, about
thirty-five years of age. Miss Wood
lands injuries were dressed by DR..
VIM. H. Houston, who stated that
she was not seriously injured, ow-
ing to the fact that the sash OF
the window, and the angle at which
the shooting was done, caused the
load of shot to be DETECTED.
According to the reports of the
shooting, Lewis, who had gotten
drunk, was in search for the bro
Their of the young lady,with whom
he had had trouble, and seeing her
sitting in the room, mistook her
for him, and raised his gun and
fired.
1t is reported that after becom-
ing intoxicated yesterday morning,
Lewis had the whole Island in ter
ror as he marched about with his
gun. He is married, and has four
children As soon as word was re-

Mrs. Ralph Bounds.

One of the saddest deaths that
has occurred in this county for
years was that of Mrs. Essie Dean
Bounds, which occurred at her
home in Vienna last night, about
eleven o'clock, after an illness of
only two days.
Besides her husband, Mr.. Ralph
Bounds, to whom she was married
about a year ago, she was the
only daughter of Mr.. and Mrs Isaac
B. Dean, of Vienna.
She was about twenty-six years
of age, and was unusually popular,
being possessed not only of
charming personality, but of a
beautiful character. Her death has
cast a shadow of gloom over the
entire community in which she re-
sided, and the heartfelt sympathy
of everyone goes out to her strick-
en- parents and bereaved husband.
The funeral services will be
held from the home tomorrow aft
ernoon, at half-past two o'clock
with interment in the Old Church
