Dr. Hedick, a dentist, a very popular and beloved figure in Palatka was wounded when an Orlando youth, Charles Johnson, saw him moving in the bushes and fired from a distance of 50 feet, thinking he was shooting at a turkey.
The .35 caliber soft-nosed bullet smashed the doctor’s right arm and penetrated the thorax, fractured two ribs and affected a lung.
An emergency operation was performed on Dr. Hedick the night of the accident, followed by several blood transfusions.
County Judge Warren said there will be no inquest of the accident. He said any further action in the case would have to come from the State Attorney.

He was a life member of the Florida Dental Society, member of the ADA, and member of the Southern Academy Periodontology. He was a member of the F&AM Lodge 34, BPOE 1232, and Morocco Temple Shrine, Jacksonville.
He was also a past president of the Florida State Fox Hunter’s Association and only recently returned from the state meet where his hounds won several trophies. He was an ardent golfer and hunter. (Palatka Daily News Obituary dtd Friday, 22 Nov 1957.)
