While pus continues to issue from the wound in his left lung, Tommie Mann, the Elizabeth City boy who was mysteriously shot on the Newland Road near Elizabeth City on Easter Sunday night, continues to improve. He is sitting up at his Elizabeth City Hospital, and his discharge is expected at an early date.
The shooting is still surrounded in mystery, the young Mann absolutely refusing to discuss the details. County Judge P.G. Sawyer is waiting for Mann’s complete recovery before quizzing Mann and others under oath.
