Mullins was shot twice Friday night by Charley DURHAM, while attending a dance on Crooked Creek. Just before the shooting took place there was a little trouble between Mullins and DURHAM over a place to dance but their friends interfered stopped it, and the boys shook hands, which as every one thought ended the trouble. But shortly someone called to Mullins to come outside and as he passed out the door two shots were fired one taking effect in the leg and the other near the shoulder blade. Young Mr. Mullins is improving and Dr. Pennington the attending physician says will recover. DURHAM escaped and his whereabouts are unknown. Dead: Mr. Joe Poynter who was fatally injured last Wed a week ago by a horse falling on him died Friday night. For about sixty hours he lay perfectly unconscious and never at any time was he able to take any refreshments not even water. There has never been a death in our little town when more sympathy was aroused than there was in the death of Mr. Poynter, the unfortunate way in which he lost his life. On Wed morning he left home well and hearty and as we heard some friends express it more cheerful than usual. But little did he think that, that morning was the last time he would ever be able to do anything for his sick wife or those little helpless children, which on account of afflictions were so dependant upon him. A large number of friends and relatives accompanied the remains to the Old Freedom burying ground where a goodly number had gathered to view the lifeless form of their once old friend and neighbor -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- X-Message: #4 Date: Mon, 15 Jan 2001 21:34:02 -0500 From: "clcrawford" Subject: NEWS: Mt Vernon Newspapers Sept 6, 1901, Rockcastle Sept 6, 1901 continued PERSONALS W.F.
