a boy, ten years of age, and had been living
with Charles W. Pierce of Monroe the past
summer. Tuesday morning he went out into
the field to catch horse, as he had often
done before, and soon afterward neighbors
heard him crying. Upon going to the field
it was found that the boy had been kicked
in the stomach. He pluckily led the horse
to the house, although suffering from severe
pain. On Thursday, however, he died. Drs

cided that his liver had been ruptured.
