An Old Feud
Kerrville, Texas, April 21 - This evening William Hollman went into the saloon of Charles
Barleman and upon seeing Thomas Carson, Hollman pulled his six-shooter and fired three
shots at Carson just as he was going out of the saloon door. Two shots took effect,
killing Carson almost instantly. Hollman at once surrendered to the city marshal and is
now in Kerrville jail. The cause of the shooting is said to be an old feud of several
months standing. It seems that each party had sworn to kill the other on sight.
