~- SHOTMAN BY BIS COMPANION.—A. fatal acci-
dent occurred at Redditch on Monday morning last.
Two young men, named Thomas and Bartleet, accom-
panied by several others, were out shooting rabbits,
B Irtleet using the gun. While at a rick, a rabbit started
out, and Thou-as who was on another side of the rick,
called out, " here he is," and sprang foi ward to strike it.
At the same moment the rabbit appeared in sight of
Bartleet, who instantly pulled the trigger, and lodged
the contents in the right side of Thomas'. head, which
caused his immediate delth. An inqutst has been el
lon the body, and a verdict. of " Accidental (leach" re-
turned.—Birmingham Gazette.
