Show t: Bullet Brings Death While Girl Taunts Mount Holly, N. C While Miss Dolly Rhodes sat beside him in an automobile and joked at his threats to kill himself, Randolph Gardner, twenty-four, member of a prominent Gaston county family, shot himself through the head, dying a few minutes later. The shooting occurred oc-curred in front of the Rhodes residence. Miss Rhodes, prostrated by the occurrence, could assign no reason. She said there had been no argument and that when Gardner put the pistol to his head and told her he was going to shoot she laughed at him, thinking he was joking, but that suddenly he pulled the trigger. , t: |
