and while in his hands it was dis
charged, the ball entering the right
side of his breast, coming out near
the middle of the spinal column,
passing clear through his body and
lodging in a side wall OF the room,
killing him almost instantly.
His father was away at Pitts
burg, in the employ of a Pittsburg
towboat company. He was immedi-
ately teIegraphed and telephoned
to. The tow-boat company said he
was not in Pittsburg, but at Brad
dock, Pa, and would reach him
and apprise him of the contents of
the message sometime in the after
noon. Sunday, word was received
from Capt. Wright that he would
arrive at home Monday evening
This is one of the most terrible
accidents that has ever happened
in this community.
