Crawfordsville, Ind., July 9—Mason Donnelly, one of the wealthiest farmers in Montgomery County, was shot by his enemies Wednesday night at his home near Linden. He was called out about 10 o’clock, and reaching the fence recognized three of his discharged farm hands, William Evans, Gus Phipps, and Anthony Shobe, who, after a few words, opened fire on him with revolvers. Donnelly was wounded in three places, and as he dropped to the ground, his assailants fled, thinking he was dead. He is seriously wounded and may die. His assailants escaped.
