Weaver, aged 16 . Charles Keiter, aged 16 Elmer Middleton, aged 18 A very unfortunate thing happened about nine ohfiock Tuesday night on the Wilmington pike, aouth of Xenia, when one life was taken and three others injured as a result o f gun shots from a Sheriff's posse, . .Nine boys and young, men o f the neighborhood were engaged in playing tricks on passing motorists by leav­ ing what appeared to be a new auto tire on the road and, when the autoist would stop the boys would pull a wire and jerk i t out o f his hand, , The boys claim; that a number of motorists were tricked and that when caught, they wopld admit being caught and go on their way feeling they had a good joke practiced on them. A passing motorist seeing the tire attempted' to get it but the lady in company with him claims that two men jumped from behind trees and started towards the; machine. The couple thinking they were about to he victims o f a hold-up 'became excitec and rushed to Xenia where the police department was notified,- Not knowing that the car of officers ■that wa? soon approaching might do them harm in such a trick, and the officers having no knowledge of what Jiad been going on, went into the case taking no chances, knowing that hold up' men were very active ;in using the “ lost, tire” as a means of stopping motorists. The setting for a hold up could.not have been better, say those who know the country. The hoys were hidden In a woods with piles o f lum- m I w negr,-and «t,»saw>mill at hand-on the Weaver farm. As the machine pulled up with the officers, Patrolman Simms . saw the tire and jumped from the machine with gun in hand and attempted to get the tir& By this time two men are said to have emerged from behind , trees and approach , the road. He claims to hade demanded “hands up" before fire but the boys deny this. The first to fafi was said to he Volney Nichols, Several shots, were fired as the boys claim before they had an opportunityto make themselves heard, In all it is said that twelve or four­ teen shots Were fired. The bpys contend that they took it that some one Was trying to scare they by fireing blank cartridges, But after the second shot they realized their danger and fled thrdugh the Woods with the officers fireing into the darkness. All the boys maintain that they were -given no warning by the officers and that Simms said ‘‘Don’t run, I ’ll kill every one o f you.* A number o f parents of the boys were spending the evening at the home of Frank Weaver just a short distance away and upon hearing the shots ran to the scene. Stories told by the boys and those by Hie officers differ greatly. Donald Weaver, 22, claims to have recognized Patrolman Simms and cried to him not to shoot hut could not make the officer understand. After several shots were fired he was commanded to throw up his hands which he says he did. Other boys in the party verify this statement, Following the shooting the officers found that four had been victims of their shots. Volney Nichols, who ran out first was killed outright, Dorsey Nichols and Warren Middleton were taken to, the Espy hospital in the machine driven by the officers. Dorsey was hit twice, once below the right shoulder blade and once through tbg stomach. Warren Middleton has a terribly lacerated left arm. The flesh Was tom and the bone shattered. Clarence Keiter has a slight leg wound. The Nichols hoy is in a very serious condition. The body o f Vol­ ney Nichols was taken to the Whltmer Undertaking establishment. Excitement in Xenia continued to grow Wednesday and threats could he heard on all sides; Public sentiment was strongly against the officers and to avert a riot oV trouble a number of deputies were appointed. It was re­ ported that the father o f the Nichols . -boys had threatened the Sheriff and that two brothers from Kentucky had been summoned. The officers say they were only act­ ing in their line of duty following a call by motorists who reported What >to them was mu attempt at hold-up. That they were taking no chances for those who are known now as young men have the height and weight of many matured men. It was even im­ possible to distinguish faces in the woods, A NEWSPAPER V&VOi'&t) TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEW* AND THE INTERESTS OF CEDAR- VILLE AND VICINITY, CEDARV ILLE , OHIO, FR IDAY , SEPTEMBER 8, 1922 PRICE , $1,50 A YEAR (Continued m Mat page.
