coon dog last winter, which ho
prized very highly.
Lieutenant Carson had consid
erable duties around camp along
In January and did not have time
to do all the coon hunting which
he would like to have done and ho
could not find time from his med
ical duties to take his dog hunt
ing as often as a good coon dog
likes to go. so the dog just "up
1 and left" the doctor's home in
Brevard last January 25th.
The doctor kept thinking his
dog would return or that someone
would recognize him and bring
him home, but no dog. Last week
Doctor Carson came by The Times
office and paid 25 cents for a lost
ad in tlie classified column, and
his dog was home Friday.
Jake Gillespie had been taking j
good care of the dog which came
to his home soon after it left Bro- [

fine shape.

Aged Man Claims Self-Defense
As Reason For Shooting
Robert Fisher
Bob Fisher 20-year-old white man of
the Reid’s Siding section was instantly
killed Thursday afternoon, and Ben
Thomas, also of that section, was bound
to Superior court the following day by
a coroner's jury charged with the young
man's death.
Evidence brought out at the hearing
held in Brevard Friday was to the effect
that the elderly Thomas shot Fisher as
he was walking toward Thomas, who
was standing in the front door of his
home.
"I aimed to stop him.” Thomas testi
fied on the stand at the inquest. The
aged-looking man said that he was
afraid Fisher would hnrm him, and that
the younger man had already beaten
him up just a short while before he
shot him. The man was killed within ten
steps of the front door of the Thomas
home, where witnesses said Ben Thomas
was standing when he fired the fatal
shot.
Eleven buck shot entered the man's
body Just above and over the heart, and
Mr. Thomas said that when the gun
fired the man "just eased down,” and
did not answer when he called to him.
nor attempted to move in any way.
Ben Thomas, his daughter, Mrs. Ethel
Breedlove, and Fred Breedlove, her
husband, were the only witnesses put
on the stand at the coroner’s Inquest.
Their stories were pretty much the
same.
There had been drinking during the
afternoon with the woman, her husband
and Fisher all being pretty drunk.
Thomas, the witnesses each testified, did
not take any whiskey with either of
the other three.
— il. . mi._... nliAIlt 1 t
o'clock Thursday morning, the evidence
given by the three showed that there
was some difference between Thomas
and Fisher, and that Mr. and Mrs
Breedlove and Fisher left and went
over to the Siding section, where they
drank an un-arrived at amount of
whiskey. Starting toward the Breedlove
home at T.ake Toxaway, the party went
back by the Thomas home, and again
Thomas and Fishei got Into an argu
ment. nnd this time the two men came
to blows. The elderly man testified that
Fisher beat him pretty severely, and
that he tore away and ran to the back
of the house.
Mrs. Breedlove took Fisher "out the
road a ways.” she said, and tried to
quiet him. However, she testified on
the stand. Fisher said he was going
back to the house and shoot Thomas.
In the meantime Thomas had returned
to the front room of his home, and when
he saw Fisher coming toward the house

He saiil that lie warned Fisher to stay
