ductor Of John Simpson,
wholesale merch a n I, was
shot and killed tonight by a
member of the sheriff's force

surrender peacefully.
Sherman said Bales was shot by
one Of the possemen when he
reached for his gun. The sheriff

the sheriff of their plight.
Sheriff Sherman persuaded Bales
and his companion to bring Mr.. and
Mrs. Simpson back to Coalgate, and
Mrs. Simpson was released. Bales
refused to release Simpson and re-
treated with him 10 the home OF
George Trice. who was out Of the
city. The abductor FABRICATED the
house and for several hours refused
20 allow the posse TO approach IL.
Members az the posse. fearful for
Simpsons safety. withheld fire.
