According to statements made to Bracken County officers immediately following the shooting, McClanahan had driven young Hall and his father, Barney Hall, away from their home. Young Hall stated that he was returning, for his personal belongings when he met McClanahan coming toward the house. McClanahan wanted to shake hands with him and Hall refused. McClanahan then began cursing Hall according to his statements to the officers, and started toward him with an open knife. Hall then raised the shotgun, which he was taking away from home, and fired, the charge striking McClanahan in the abdomen. McClanahan died the same afternoon and was buried Tuesday afternoon in the Willow Cem. After the shooting Hall went to Brooksville, where he surrendered to county officers. He claims that he shot in self defense. The sympathy of the entire community in which the tragedy occurred is with young Hall. The Halls are well known in Pendleton Co. McClanahan was a bachelor and made his home in the vicinity with his aged mother, Mrs. Lucas. He did not stand well in the estimation of his neighbors. The examining trial is set for Friday of this week, and the young man was released on $1,000 bail. He could have executed a $50,000 bond. He is represented by Attorney W. O. Blackerby.
