MAN GETS SHOT
Difficulty Occurred Last
Week at ValdOsta, Ga.
Injured Man Will Recover.

Joseph w. Johnson, formerly of
Union, now of Valdosta, Ga, was shot
in the head last week and--seriously,
though not fatally, injured. The shoot
ing was done by a mechanic in a
garage, dispute having arisen over
the small sum of SO cents difference
in the price of an automobile tire. 1t
seems from the account that has
reached us that but one shot was fired
and that at close range. 1t appears,
further, that there was little provoca-
ton for the shooting.
Mr.. r. A. Jones wired to Valdosta
Tuesday and in reply received the fol-
lowing: johnson will recover, SAYS
doctor. They have gotten the ball out
of his head. Very little provocation
for the shooting. c. Dampier, Chief
of Police"
Mr.. johnson was for a number of
years in the livery business here; he
has been in business in Valdosta for
the past year or more.
The Times is indebted to Mr.. r. A..
Jones for the definite news of the
shooting, which came direct to him in
response to message which he sent
asking for the information.
