says It was at this point that he
fired at McCary. The bullet enter.
ed the right breast penetrating the
lung and last night It was feared
that the wound would prove fatal.
McCary was rushed to the hospital
and Cunningham came in and gave
himsel fup. v !.
Officers who interviewed both
the patient at the hospital and the
prisoner at the jail say that they
tell practically the same story the
only difference being that Mct.ary
denies that he struck at Cunning
ham with his penknife.
