H. Homer Fuller Died Monday Night From Gunshot Wound

H. H. Fuller, died Monday night at the Paris sanitarium, where he was taken after being wounded from a gunshot wound.

Mr. Fuller, who operated cafes at Paris and Hugo, Oklahoma, according to reports had returned from Hugo and had closed his Paris business for the night. A woman employee of the cafe, held for questioning, told officers that Fuller had just seated himself in his car and started to turn on the ignition when the shot was fired.

The charge was believed to have been fired from close range as it tore a hole through the car window and struck the victim just behind the left ear. Buckshot was found in the wound, so officers reported, while a 12 gauge shotgun shell loaded with birdshot was found in the center of the street. Both county and city officials of Paris are working on the case, but no identity of the slayer has been found.

Henry Homer Fuller was born at Georgiana, Alabama, on March 2, 1900, and was 42 years of age.

On September 1, 1920, he married Myrtle Bowden at Kemp, Texas, who survives with two daughters, Misses Jimmie and Geraldine Fuller, both students at Texas State College for Women, Denton.

Other survivors are three brothers and three sisters, Alvin Fuller and Mrs. Byron Till of Honey Grove; Gordon Fuller, Mrs. J.C. McCindale and Mrs. J.G. Sauter, Mobile, Alabama; and L.T. Fuller, Greenvilel, Alabama.

The family moved to Honey Grove from Kemp eighteen years ago, and Mr. Fuller was engaged in the market and grocery business until about a year ago. Several months ago he entered business at Paris and Hugo.

Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon at the late home on West Market Street, conducted by Rev. T. J. Watts, with burial being made at Oakwood Cemetery.
