[no file] Midland Journal 7/16/1926 DEADLY PISTOL DUEL One Man Shot To Death Other Seriously Injured Cephus B. Dalton and Price Wade "shot each other up" on Sunday night, about ten o'clock, with the result that the former is dead, shot clear through the body, and the latter in Union Hospital, Elkton with a serious wound in the left arm. There are many conflicting stories concerning the shooting, which occurred in front of a road house between Porters Bridge and Oakwood, kept by Mrs. May Guthrie. The altercation appears to have arisen over Wade's wife. From the testimony of eye witnesses both men drew their revolvers and fired at practically the same time. Dalton was shot in the. right breast, the bullet passing entirely through his body. He got into the automobile of A. B. Underwood, where he died while being taken to his home, death being due to internal hemorrhage. Wade was shot in the left arm, his " gun arm," being left handed. The bullet entered at the elbow and came out at the shoulder. He was taken to the hospital by some of his friends and was in a serious condition from the loss of blood. Sheriff Pierson, of Elkton, was summoned to the scene and made a number of arrests, holding the parties as witnesses for the inquest held at Elkton Tuesday night by Coroner Green. State's Attorney Joshua Clayton conducted the examination of witnesses. Dr. R. C. Dodson and Dr. Vernon McNnight, who had held an autopsy over the body of Cephus B. Dalton, testified as to the nature of the wound that caused death. Witnesses questioned by the State's Attorney were: A. B. Underwood, who drove the car in which Dalton died; Simpson Ayers, William Underwood, Thomas Burnett, Webb Sutphen, Henry Underwood, Horace Stanley, John Dalton and Mrs. Lula May Wade. It was surprising how little some of the witnesses knew, despite the fact that they were all on the scene. None knew of any ill feeling between the men, and denied all knowledge of a bootlegger feud, when the State's Attorney attempted to question along these lines. The hearing lasted for more than two hours and when the jury was finally given the case it was near the midnight hour when they returned a verdict to the effect that Cephus B. Dalton came to his death by a gunshot wound at the hands of Price Wade. Both principals and all the witnesses are Virginians, some of them not having lived in this section long. Cephus B. Dalton a few months ago purchased the J. M. Sterrett farm, near Rock Springs. He leaves a wife and three small children. His body was taken to his former home in Virginia for burial. Mr. J. E. Tyson took the. body of Cephas B. Dalton to Meadow Dan, Floyd county, Virginia, for interment last week. FAG Contributor: Ron Hall (47587775) Find A Grave note: “Oma's name is on her husband's stone in Carroll County Va., but she lived 48 more years after he was murdered in Cecil Co MD. So, she was buried here, West Nottingham Cemetery, Colora, Cecil Co., MD, near loved ones. Info provided by Great Grandson Leonard Michael Goad.” (src: Find A Grave; photo added by Prudence Mar 2020)
