An Accident Costing
Life Of A Young Lad
The joy of Christmas morning was
turned-to the bitterest of grief at the
V. L. Efogenrlef home, southeast of
this city, when it was, learned that
their eleven year old son, Jamea, had
been accidentally shot while out rab
bit bunting, with- an older brother,
with a gun which bod been gjyen him
that morning as a Christmas present.
The fatal accident occurred some'
distance -from the Bogenrief home. On
reaching'a barbed wire fence the older
boy crawled thru first and James was'
passing the gun1 thru to him with the
muzzle pointing toward himself when
the gun was discharged, the bullet
striking near the heart. By the aid of
the older boy, he endeavored to reach
home, but died when about a half
mile distant.
Dr. Damerall and Coroner Amack
were summoned, but as related above,
the boy had expired, before their ar.
rival. The doctor states that the
wound was such that medical attention
would have been of no avail, the bullet
have glazed his heart.
, The funeral was held at the home
Monday, Rev. L. Hicks of the Highland
M. E. church officiating. Interment
took place in the Highland cemetery.
The bereaved parents and relatives
have the sympathy of the entire com
munity. Notice.

bright to say the least.
