A shooting scrape on Christmas eve at
Georgetown, resulted in a Mexican receiving a
shot in the abdomen. It would seem that the
Mexican, whose name we have been unable
to learn, entertained a grudge against Billy
Roberts and to satisfy this, he began stoning
Roberts, who refrained from firing until after
he had been struck two or three times in the
face. Then forebearance ceased to be a virtue,
and Roberts shot the Mexican as above stated.
Strange to say the physician’s have some hope
of the Mexican’s recovery. Public sentiment
is in favor of Roberts.
