Mr. Robert E Wishart, of this city, was ahotand instantly killed about 8 o'clock Sunday morning at San Antonia. This ews when heard here a short while after the shooting created a great deal of excitement and many rumors were afloat as to the reason for the deed- Mr- Wishart was kindly and pleasant gentleman and had no known enemies. Mr. Wishart was in the crosstie business.having a camp at Enhern m Pasco county, near ban Anto nio. His daughters. Misses Jen nie and Annahella wishart, were on a visit to him at that place and in company with their father drove over to San Antonia Sun day morning to have some dental work done- One of the young ladies was in the chair, the den tist, Dr. Nobles, operating on her teeth. A knock was heard at the door and as tho dentist was busy, Mr. Wishart answered tho tnock. A turpentine operator by the name of Burton was stand ing without and asked if Dr. Nobles was m. Mr. Wishart atu swered in the affiramtive and as the words left his mouth Burton fired at him with a shot gun kill ing him instantly. As the dead man fell his murderer uttered these words, "Nobles, you have ruined my life," or words to that effect In his rage and haste he had committed a more awful crime than he had intended, mis taking Mr. Wishart for tho den tist thereby killing an innocent man, of whom he had never heard before. The daughters of Mr- Wishart were horribly shocked over the tragedy and inconsolable in their grief. The murderer was captured and is now in jail at Dade City.
