yolyer. 1t had been there a long time, for
gotten by the doctor and the family. The
little boy naturally supposed it was empty
and harmless and began Swapping it at
his little brother John. Suddenly there was
Il flash and loud report and John with a
scream fell TO the floor, Or. Robins
heard The report and rushed into the room

house, but the child died in Il very few
minutes, not speaking after being shot.
The ball entered the right side below he
