EDIroR DAILY LEADsR Master Ward Tur-
ner, the lad spoken of in my last letter, died on
Friday night the 10th. from the effects of the
shot. A post ulOrtsm examination was made
by Prof Paine, upon which it was found that
two or three shot had entered the windpiPe,
one had passed into the inside of the Trachea,
one was lodged in the upper vertebra of the
neck, and one or two had glanced downward
into the lungs The wound was mortal one,
and the only wonder is that he could have sur
vived as long as he did-from Wednesday after
noon until Friday night. This accident and its
fatal result have thrown deep gloom over the
neighborhOo1, and a large degree Of heartfelt
sympathy is felt towards those who had been
made mOuTners by this accident. On Sunday
the funeral took place. and large eoneOurse Of
people assembled on the occasion. The corpse
was taken To Carfield for interment.
