Breyer Shot Near Crown Point Mine
A telephone message reports Jim Clark shot Ed Breyer this morning near the Crown Point mine in Idaho. Breyer, who fronts mining claims on the hill, was shot from behind while Breyer’s homestead buildings were being moved after Clark disputed Breyer’s land rights. Clark surrendered at Dixie. Breyer’s wounds were treated by Dr Hawley and he expects a week or ten days of recovery. Gun violence is rising, with past incidents including a shoulder wound to Clark years ago.
