Mrs. Westberry Shot By Brother-in-Law. Mrs. W. C. Westberry living about six miles south of Jesup, was wounded by stray shots from a gun used by Thomas Thompson, her brother-in-law, when he fired at a dog in the road near her late Wednesday afternoon. It was first thought that Mrs. Westberry was seriously hurt and she was rushed to the local sanitarium here for examination and first aid. It was found however that she received flesh wounds only and was permitted to return home a few hours later. It was first rumored that some foul play existed in the matter and Sheriff L. W. Rogers was summoned to the scene, but Mrs. Westberry in a statement said that Thompson did not intend any damage to her.
