six miles south of Alamo. died in
the municipal hospital here at 7:20
q. m. today and county officers un-
der the direction of Deputy Sheriff
John Bales, redoubled efforts to find
the slayer.
The shooting occurred as Perez was
driving a bale Of cotton to the gin.
In a vague statement. Perez said a
man about his own size wearing a
white hat had ordered him TO stop.
He complied and his assailant op-
ened fire Immediately. Officers later
found Perez wagon near the Rio
Grande.
One shot hit Perez just below the
heart.
Officer Bales said he was inclined
to attribute the shooting to boot
leggers' feud. An attempt early
Thursday morning to draw more de-
tails from Perez proved futile and
Bales declared that with so few clues
to work on. the slayer may never
be apprehended.
Funeral arrangements were being
completed at the slain mans home
near Pharr.
