GREENCASTLE, Ind, Oct flames
Paris, aged twelve, shot and killed his nine
teen-year-old brother, Emery Paris, in his
bed at Westland, near this city, this morn

swapping revolver in his sleeping brothers
face. A revolver had been kept at the house
and was unloaded for some time. Yesterday
two of the boys of the family went to
ClOverdale and bought cartridges and loaded
the weapon. This was unknown to the boy
when he went to awaken his brother this
morning. Thinking to scare him a little, he
took the revolver and snapped it in his face
sending ball through his brain, killing him
instantly.
