Shot Dead in Texas

Sad News from a Charlotte Boy in the Lone Star State

Mr. L.P. Howie, who left Charlotte two years ago to make his home in Texas was 
shot dead at Snipe Springs in that State last night. Mr. James Howie, his 
brother, this morning received a telegram to that effect. The telegram was 
sent by the unfortunate young man's wife and gave no particulars. It merely 
stated that Mr. Howie had been shot and instantly killed.

Mr. James Howie immediately telegraphed to Snipe Springs for particulars of 
the affair but up to a late hour this afternoon no reply had been received.

Mr. Howie was about 21 years of age. He left Charlotte two years ago and made 
his home at Snipe Springs, Texas. He married a young lady there, who, with 
young child, survives him.
