RUFUS DANIEL SERIOUSLY SHOT TUESDAY NIGHT BY ODE MAY

Late Tuesday night, Rufus Daniel, operator of a filling station and store a 
mile west of town, was frightfully shot in the right hip just below the joint, 
by Ode May.  The weapon was a shotgun and facts are meager.  It is said that 
May was drinking and disorderly and when he came by the store and was required 
to leave, that he went back to his home, got his gun and came back, firing a 
load at close range and without warning into Daniel as he stood at his cash 
register.  Dr. J.L. Taylor rendered first aid and had Daniel rushed to the 
hospital in LaGrange where he is said to be  in precarious condition, the full 
extent of the wound not determined as we go to press.  May has been lodged in 
jail.
