Source, Rutland Daily Herald--Fri. Nov. 10, 1916. ISLAND POND BOY IS KILLED BY GANGSTER. Archie Reggie Makes Attempt to Stop Election, Shot in Head. OFFICERS CANNOT LOCATE SLAYER State's Attorney Expects to Make Arrest Soon Though Clews Are Meager. Island Pond, Nov. 9--While attempting to act as peacemaker during a heated political argument over election results last evening, Archie Reggie, 16-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Reggie, was instantly killed by a bullet from a revolver in the hands of one gang of quarreling toughs. The affair took place on the village streets and followed an exciting discussion regarding the probable outcome of the national election. It is said that a gang of rowdies got into a discussion and that a fight started. Reggie attempted to separate the men when someone drew a revolver and fired, the bullet plowing its way through the boy's head. In the excitement which followed the shooting the murder either escaped or could not be identified. State's Attorney Powell was notified and the sheriff's department quickly started to find the man who fired the shot. At a late hour this evening no arrest had been made, but the authorities believe that they will be able to locate the man who killed Reggie within a few hours. The bullet struck the boy in the temple and went completely through his head. The shooting took place about 9:30 o'clock and though there were many persons on the street no one could be found who could give the officers any clew as to the identity of the murder. Transcribed by,
