The Semi-Weekly Messenger (Wilmington NC) December 21, 1897
About 3 PM Monday Morganton was the scene of a shooting affray which may
terminate fatally for one of the participants, and came near seriously injuring
Mr Frank P Tate, who, being attracted to the window of his home by the firing,
was struck by a spent ball. The participants in the affray were Felix Flemming,
Henry Moore, and  George Avery, all colored. Flemming was shot twice - once
through the lower jaw and neck, the ball lodging in the back of the neck. George
Avery had one bullet in his leg. Moore was not injured.
