A SAD TRAGEDY
YOUNG COY McCORMAC IS SHOT TO DEATH NEAR GIBSON, NC
Mr. Coy McCormac the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. D. McCormac of Little Rock, was shot and killed Thursday about 11 o'clock just one mile from Dunlap saw mill, near which he was working at Gibson, NC. The parties that killed him are yet unknown.
It seems that the trouble was about a girl that Coy was with. They came up behind him and shot him, the first load entering his side and the second entered his heart killing him instantly. He was brought home Friday night on the 11 o'clock train.
Coy was working with the Dunlap saw mill which moved from some where in NC to Gibson NC about three months ago. He had many friends around Dillon and Gibson. He was loved by everybody that knew him, always seemed to be a nice young man. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
He was laid to rest at Rowland, NC in the family cemetery Saturday morning.
He leaves to mourn his loss his mother Mrs. D. McCormac, Miss Sara McCormac, Miss Rosa McCormac, Mrs. Miles Taylor. Will McCormac, Alex McCormac, Jim McCormac, his father having preceded him to the grave a good many years ago.
His family has our heartfelt sympathy. - Written by one who loved him.
