He is probably mortally wounded. A misunderstanding among the young men over a girl caused the trouble. Woodall started to escort the young lady home from a dance, when Perrin and Bailey resisted and a fight ensued. It is charged that Bailey and Perrin attacked Woodall and one of them slipped up behind him and cut his throat. Deputy Marshal J. E. Dibble arrested Perrin and Bailey and brought them here before Commissioner Stanfield who committed them to jail. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
