The Oskaloosa Independent Jefferson County Saturday April 1, 1876 On last Saturday afternoon, Dave SAMPLE and A.M. FOWLER met in Thomas' drug store in Medina and commenced boxing, apparently in fun, but soon got to fighting, when Thomas drew a pistol and fired away at the parties, shooting Sample through the arm below the elbow. The citizens of that delightful burg cannot expect anything better than such disgraceful rows so long as they tolerate such an infamous institution as that kept by Thomas, viz, the lowest king of a grog shop, run under the guise of a "drug store."
