Clarence Feyerhart remains jailed on a $2,500 bond for firing four shots from a revolver at Miss Pearl Auman as she returned home near Kent Friday night. Everhart, a 23-year-old member of a local youth group, said the shots were meant for sport and not to harm anyone. He described riding in a single buggy with three companions, claiming the gun belonged to him and that he had added it to another boy’s weapon after passing the Four Corners. He insisted he fired four times into the air and refused to name the other participant, stating details would come at the hearing set for Wednesday, October 7. He expressed remorse and said he did not understand how any shot could hit a buggy ahead. He and Graessler, seen with Miss Auman that night, denied enmity, claiming a long-standing friendship instead. Everhart has worked on William Macerkan’s farm, with his home in Willow, Davis County, near Bear. The accident remains under investigation as authorities pursue further statements.
