The Ford car driven by Mise New- comb at the time of the tragedy and the bullet which was found in the body of the deceased will be examined at the inquest. There are two pullet holes in this car, one in the upperright hand corner of the back seat and one in the front right fender, The hole in the back of the car and caused by the bullet which struck Mrs. Newcomb is quite clean cut, but it will take an investi. gation by the jury to determine the case sinc was fhe Casper Daily Cribune ‘ 7 whether or not the bullet ‘first hit, born at Neceta, Wis., March 12, 1874. the ground and then ricocheted.

I went right past them because they never told me at any time during the evening before the accident, nor after the accident, that he was an official of the law. He at no time asked me to halt. “I had gone from five to ten feet past them, the last and fatal time, when five shots were fired directly at us. This I saw with my own eyes because I slowed down, and I hur- riedly looked from the right to the left and saw fire on both sides from pistols. I saw two flashes of fire from the pistol on the left hand side of me, and I saw fire on the right hand side of me from one pistol. I cannot say how many shots were fired, but there must have been at fired altogether, when my {a, ‘Helen, my back hurts, I think I'm shot’. “I atopped the car as quickly as I could and I hollered to these men, ‘For God sake, stop shooting, you have shot my mother’, “When the car was stopped I asked my mother if she was able to step| out of the cer in front of the head lights. She did so unassisted. I raised her sweater and felt with my) right hand, and my hand was drip- ping with blood. She stood there. I was screaming and pleading for ald for someone to take my mother to the hospital. “After I had examined the wound as best I could, I went back of our Ford and looked at the bullet holes, then I exclaimed, ‘Where {s the man who shot my mother’? “A man stepped up and sald, ‘T ald. What are you going to do about it’. The man who said that was Mr. Canftin.

He replied, ‘To hell with you, she isn’t hurt, it’s only a pin scratch’. “It was fully twenty minutes be- fore any ald was offered my mother, and two fellows finally, through my asking, then took her to the hospital “When I stopped, a man came to the left aide of the car near me and T sald, ‘Dusty Miller’, and he ran and) T haven‘t neen him since. | “I left the scene of the aecident and went to a pool hall at the en- trance of Evanaville at the left hand side of the road and notified Perry Morris to come to the scene of the accident, also notified my father, but the sheriff paid no attention to the call and did not come out to the scene. “When I returned to my car, T asked Mr. Ted Flanagan, who ts the editor of the North Casper News, where the man who shot my mother is. He said, ‘Don't worry, the sheriff took him to jail’. Then I asked where they took my mother. He said, ‘To your home’. Some strange man drove our car to our residence at 740 North Center. Upon my arrival, neither my mother nor my father were there, so I called friends of mine to come with their Dodge car, and they took me to the hospital. So far I hadn't even learned where she was taken. Ted Flanagan had been caltmg several hospitals and he was so {irritable on the phone that I jerked the recelver away from him and did the ploning myself.
