render him aid these two gentlemen are of opinion that he will recover the bullet ballet not having penetrated any vital part inmost in most of those cases however there is danger of inflammation setting in especially when the weather Is as hot as it Is now the patient has been suffering intensely and this forenoon appeared to be sinking he ire is however a young man of or apparent apparently IT strong constitution and powerful bull build which is in his favor the statement of maynard who was interviewed ter viewed this morning by a NEWS reporter does not materially differ from those of

not want to kill grant and before he decided to the shet shot he considered in his mind whether he should shoot him in the leg and finally decided to select a part of the body that he thought he could conid shoot without killing lie ire also said that grant was bringing his pistol up after harng fired the first shot when he himself fired he wab was not at all ali excited and knew what he was doing maynard maynand Is also quite a you young anz man and because of his large size anci ana aaa powerful physique Is called big ben he says he cannot say he Is sorry lie he shot abet grant ashe as he never calculated to let a man kill him it he could stop him from doing so A bys byE bystander tander states that another party besides grant also pulled a pistol on maynard and that the batters lat companion then drew a weapon and told that party if he be did not put up his pistol he would shoot him and the individual thus addressed then hastily returned the weapon to his pocket |
