The sad story of the accidental shoot
ing of a little boy at Hodgdon. this
week, reads like a chapter from the
fashioned sunday school book.
The boy with another little fellow had
been sent 10 Sunday school by their
parents, but the spirit of mischief was
50 strong in them that they went back
from Sunday school to the residence of
the boy who was shot, and there sue
ceeded in getting hold of an old muZ-
Zle-l0ading shot gun and a small guam
tity of buck shot and other ammuni-
ton. with which they started down the
road toward the woods. They had not
exactly decided which way to go and
We're sitting on a fence at the edge of
the woods near the road. when tn.
chatter of a team was heard coming in
their direction Fearing detection by
some one who would inform their par
ents. the lads hastily clambered over
III. fence. and in doing SO discharged
the gun with fatal effect.
