By the Associated Press

Elizabeth City, N.C., Aug. 26—O.A. McPherson, farmer of Providence township, was shot through the jaw this afternoon, and shortly thereafter warrants charging Hiram Eason a farmer from the same section, with assault with a deadly weapon were sworn out.

McPherson refused to discuss the matter. The bullet was removed from the back of his neck late today. His condition is not believed to be serious.
