Serious Shooting and Cutting Affray at Richlands Six men participate and only one escaped injury-several very badly wounded
There was a serious shooting and cutting affray at Richlands , on the Clinch Valley Division, Thursday, when James Pruitt, Anthony Christian, Reese Helbert , Sam Pack, Crockett Pack, and Tenney (Tinsley) Pack got into aracket on the outskirts of the town.
Pruitt, who is a married man, 40 years of age, was shot four times by Crockett Pack-once in the left ___, once in the right groin and once in each leg. Anthony Christian, aged 22, was shot three times, all of the bullets taken effect in the back. His injury's are very serious. Sam Pack, aged 28, had one of his hands nearly cut off. Crockett Pack, age 25, is cut very badly in three or four places about the face and neck. He is the man whom a Norfolk and Western conductor thrashed on the train while he was returning to Richlands from Main's show, which exhibited in Tazewell last fall.
Helbert is the only man who participated in Thursday's affray who excaped injury. Young Tenny Pack has left for parts unknown. Pruitt and Christian are lying in cots in the school house at Richlands, and Crockett Pack is at his home.
Justice Cecil will bear the evidence in the case today, and the prospects are that he will send all the parties to jail who are able to go and have the balance of the gang put under heavy guard. The cause of the whole trouble was too much moon shine liquor.
