teen, whose home is at Stockton, was
on a prospecting tour near West
Point, Cal, with person whom he
called uncle and another man ramed
Piper. The boy kept camp, and, while
handling self-cocking 44-caliber
pistol, it was acci ientally discharged,
the ball entering the calf of the left
leg below the knee and passing out
the opposite side little above the
ankle. When the men returned they
examined him and told him they
could do nothing for him. they then
left him rolled in one blanket, covered
with cedar boughs, which they cut
for the purpose, and told him he must
stay there and die. He was found by
a man named Serans, who took him
to West Point. where his wound was
dressed. His companions have not
been heard from or seen since.-Car.
