Other John Taylor, of near Indianapolis, shot and dangerously wounded his wife Julia, last Wednesday. They used to live in Centerton. "Julia Ann Taylor, formerly of this city, who was shot last week by her husband, died Wednesday at her home, 5 miles West of Indianapolis. She was the daughter of J.S. Hawk of this city."
