    Notes 
    • Evelyn MCKENZIE (James Harris-3, John L.-2, Samuel J.-1). Frostburg, Sept. 2 - Mrs. Evelyn McKenzie, 28, who gave her address as 1810 North Charles street, Baltimore, was treated last night at Miners' Hospital for pistol wounds in her left thigh, said to have been inflicted by Frank Carey, 29, West Loo street, this city. According to city police, Mrs. McKenzie and her sister, Mrs. Enlow Wampler, Severn, Md., and her brother, Edgar McKenzie, this city, were leaving the Little Ritz restaurant, West Main street, about 9 p.m. when Carey, seated in a car parked in front of the establishment, fired five shots from a .38 calibre revolver at Mrs. McKenzie. One shot pierced her thigh, but the wound was treated at the hospital, and she was able to leave. Carey, who had been arrested here on several other occasions, is said to have remarked to the investigating officers that he was sorry that all five of the shots did not hit her. According to Mrs. Wampler, she and Mrs. McKenzie had arrived here yesterday from Baltimore for a visit with relatives. She said they went to the Little Ritz about 8 p.m. Seeing Carey in the parked car, she said she and her sister decided to leave the restuarant. Mrs. Wampler said that Carey had threatened her sister on previous occasions, and that Mrs. McKenzie had left Frostburg about three months ago and obtained work in Baltimore to get away from Carey. She said that Carey had come to Baltimore several times but that her sister had refused to go out with him. According to Trooper Beamer, Carey, who has a cork leg and a glass eye, said he wanted to put Mrs. McKenzie in the same condition as he is in. Following the shooting, city police said that Carey went into the Little Ritz and sat down at the bar. He did not resist arrest but admitted the shooting to the local police officers, who lodged him in the city jail. According to a signed statement to the State's Attorney's office, Carey admitted the shooting and told of the jealousy rankling in his bosom ever since he was "jilted" by Mrs. McKenzie. Mrs. McKenzie had been employed in the kitchen of the Little Ritz until about three months ago. The Cumberland Evening Times, September 2, 1942.
