Among wild tales told with re ference to the shooting is one in which Mrs. Mack Hemphill was quoted as saying she heard Turner say to Keady: "Here, Peg is the gun; you've got it now and you know what to do. Go and do your work." When Mrs. Hemphill was seen, it turned out that she had heard nothing of the kind. Voices were heard under her window half an hour before the first shot was fired and there was indistinct talk about shooting somebody, and something about a family, but it was all indefinite, the voices being unrecognizable. The main topic of conversation about the court house Monday was marriages that happened there dur ing the day. The weddings were two in number. In each instance, the ceremony was performed within fifteen minutes after the license was issued, and all the returns and other legal papers necessary on file in the clerk's office. The ceremonies was performed by Rev. T. T. Vincent in the private office of the county clerk. One of the weddings occurred in the fore noon and the other in the afternoon.

The last shot that Chester Keady fired from his revolver, gave a mortal wound to James Dunn. After 52 hours of suffering, , the wounded man breathed his last in his room at the Occidental at twen ty minutes to five o'clock- Tuesday morning. The funeral occurs today Wednesday. All Maccabees will meet at Odd Fellows hall 1 at 1:30. . Early Monday night, it became known that the patient could not survive the night. Peritonitis ap peared, and after that, all hope was abandoned by '- tbe physicians. Throughout Monday his pulse stood at 140 to 160, In the after noon it remained at the higher figure, and was in addition weak and irregular. Saline solution was administered to stimulate heart action, but it failed of its purpose. One or more of the three physicians in charge of his case was with him almost constantly. At 10 o'clock he was told that if he had any busi ness matters to adjust that he had better do it. Julian McFadden was in the room at the time and calling him to the bedside, Mr, Dunn said, "You know what I want: fix it up," Mr. McFadden repaired to his office, wrote the in strument and it was properly signed and witnessed. ' The patient remained perfectly conscious until long after midnight. He was a close observer of the physicians and others about the room. His two brothers, his sister and daughter and two sons were at the bedside. The same cool courage that was with him when he stood by Os burn's side when the latter was shot, and that was present again when he received the fatal bullet that otherwise would have slain Sheriff Burnett, was with him still when the grim reaper called. A more generous hearted man or a more dauntless friend than James Dunn never dwelt in Benton, for all of which the evidence is and al ways will be, when and where and why, he died. He was about 45 years of age, and leaves a daughter and two sons and many friends to mourn his passing. Seventh Day Adventists. Will hold legular service at S, D.
