A reader from Rome, William T. Masry, denies a recent Daily Banner report that he was shot at Mr. Sims’s stillhouse. He states he was not shot, brands the informant a liar, and offers to prove his innocence with reliable locals. Hood’s Sarsaparilla ad follows. A separate Rome tragedy report describes a riverfront incident where a keg of beer and a barlow knife led to the death of Frank Dempsey after a fight with Joe Herrick. Herrick used the knife, disemboweled Dempsey, and Dempsey died at 9 am after medical aid failed.
