ricochet to the point a mile from the
mountain where the victims met death,
but whether or not the story that an
other shell had been diverted far from
its course is correct A shell that did
not explode but went whizzing over a
house was the indirect cause of Willie
Coleman, negro. being hurt, accord
ing to his story.
