Women Die Shielding Men in West Virginia Feud Shootout
Williamson, W V Nov 27 A rifle in hand Mrs Charles Daniels and her 16 year old daughter fired from a doorway to shield two Daniels men as a sheriff posse came to serve warrants over a feud with the Christian family. Both women fell dead from posse fire while the Daniels men escaped through a rear exit. The feud began after George Christian was killed in Kentucky a month earlier and ties between the families have drawn warrants for Jin and Charles Daniels. The posse continues to search for the two Daniels men.
