Harry Pine was tried on a whisky charge. The fight started between Harry Pine and Harry Jones.  Alta Pine hit Winifred Hicks, brother of Constable Walter Hicks when he thought the younger Hicks was going to draw a gun.  Hicks got a gun from his father.  He shot Alta Pine five times.  Dillie Edwards tried to take the gun from Hicks and was shot in the leg.[1]
