Sip. the little son of our esteemed
friend Mr.. p. a. Lacy, met with quite
painful accident wednesday evening.
through the careless handling of a loaded
Winchester shell. While holding it in his
hand he touched live coal TO the fuse,
when of course il exploded, tearing and
burning his hand badly. DR.. Billiu dress
ed the wound, and though painful, is not
considered dangerous His escape, and
that of his two little sisters, who were
with him, from a worse fate, seems prov
idential We extend our sympathy TO
the little man, with hopes of speedy re
covery. and trust his painful experience
will prove valuable lesson to other
boys, particularly the neighbors, from
whom he learned the dangerous Dastime.
