An examination disclosed a gunshot wound over th* right temp!*, and a deep cut over th* left temple. The man.

It developed that Dougherty wept to tbe bank and when he got near tbe door. Laird pointed a gun at him tad told him to come inside, but Doughtery thought the air waa better outside. When he reached the store, he said, he didn’t nee the man coming after him. and while he looked out of th* door, he aaw the men running fp-ui the bank.

On Monday James Pettit who te ate to have actually fired th* shot which caused Mr. Tomlin's death, wrote a tetter to hi* half-brother KalBh Gordon, of North Arlington! in which ha expressed pity. somTc^ groeof braggadocio, bat not th* least regret over having committed the deed that may send -Im to tb# electric chair. He trite of a sear he wUI have from the cut he received when *'‘a car overturned, and feels n»it it “going to be pretty bad for me." The letter, mailed Tuesday, even as Mr. Tomlin was breathing hte test, te Illiterate and scarcely legible. It
read* as follow*:
"Dear Brother—I am sorry I haf to rite this kind of a letter u. you It te too bad that we got sue* an idear In our heads to do such a thing as this and think we could get away with it. And we went throw quite a let to get here to. We lest the boll nigh* sleep and we hen trouble with every Ore on the car. But we bed them fixed good before we went in
Tuckahoe.
"Well we dident do aa well a* we thought we would. I gee you know a lot about It by now. "Well, we dldent Intend to ahoot anyone. And we dident Intend to fire a gun If we could help it. "I went in the bank with my gun cocked and It worked ao easy that wen I tried to hit the man I puled the tricker. And the bulet hit the man esldently and it hit him in a bad place. And he laent exped to live. And if he dont it is going to be prety bad for me. "I have a bad cut over my left eye and It te apt to leave a bad tear there. I got It when my ear turned over on tt _> road leading to MlIlvUl* from Tuckahoe. Goa* waa shot in the head with a buckshot and ha got braaed up e little wen th* car over turned. We were going between 40 and 46 and ower at the time It over turned. And wer wer# luekey I wertnt all killed. "Well were here to stay for aloog ba I am aorry for Walter a*2 Guas lor Waite, the most for he has a good Mother and father and ststera. "Well thia is all I can say this time. Pleas* write to Mother. I only wish the man I shot will live. "(Signed) JIM."
