just about as long to ge- ackagu |

Newberry. And mail is very much t
the same. We had a package mailel

DEWBERRY SHOOTING
CAUSED BY DARKNESS
Neerro Fires On Well Known Young
Through Error?Wound
, v , ifot Serious.
Sir. George Johnson, about 21 years
old, the son of Mr. Andrew Johnson
of Kinards, was shot witn a &uui6uu
Saturday evening at about 7:30 o'
clock, -while walking the railroad
track at Kinards, between the store3
of J. A. Dominick and Smith Broth
ers, 13 miles from Newberry. The
shooting was done by Henry Dendy,
a middle-aged colored man.
Sheriff Blease was notified and hur
ried to the scene. Arriving there he
found that Magistrate Henry Dor-^
roh, Mr. Lee Singley and others had
caught Dendy, who was turned over
to the sheriff and brought to jail.
Everything was quiet and orderly and
no violence was threatened.
Dendy confessed that he shot Mr.
Johnson. He gave a piausiDie siui j.
which is believed, that he and another
negro ha-d had a fuss the day before;
that he knew the other negro would
pass that way and that he laid in wair
for him by the side of the railroad.
When Mr. Johnson came along. Dendy
mistook him for the negro he wa%
looking for, and fired, it being too
dark to distinguish persons. j
""Dr. T. H. Pope was called into at
tend the wounded man. He found
that Mr. Johnson was shot in the leftj
side. The wound, although bad, is<
not a serious one.
