Author: JohnWOBrien Surnames: MOORE, SHULER, THOMPSON Classification: biography Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.kansas.counties.wyandotte/1670/mb.ashx Message Board Post: "The Kansas City Journal" (Missouri) Wednesday, August 5, 1891 A laughable shooting match took place at Packard and Miami Avenues yesterday, between Patrolmen THOMPSON and MOORE and Mounted Officer SHULER. The target was a mad dog at a distance of ten feet. THOMPSON fired four times and failed to make a score. MOORE met with no better success, SHULER being more modest and only shot twice and then made a compromise and killed the dog with a club. ====================================================== (I have no connection with any of these families but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) johnobrien@kc.rr.com ====================================================== neirbo9 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
