He Had wounded Himself While Ont
Shooting Fish.

he hHu SOuhueu Himself While Out
Shooting Fish.
Vsldosta, Ga, April 20-News was re-
ceived here to-day of the discovery of
the body of young Ben Howard. who dis
appeared from home one day last week.
It was found in boat in Rays mill pond
and the boat was under several feet of
water where it had capsized. The young
man, while shooting fish in the pond acct
dentally shot himself. 1t is supposed that
he either died of the wound or else Law
helpless in the boat until 1t sunk, when
he was drowned.
Young Howard was a soldier in the war
with Spain and did duty in Cuba. He re-
turned home after the war closed and
has lived with his adopted father at RAYS
Mill. Last week he left home and was not
seen any more until his gun was dis
covered in the water at the foot of a tree.
This excited suspicion and a search was
instituted, resulting I'M the finding of the
body in the boat at the bottom of the
pond.
The theory is that he had been up in
the tree shooting at fish in the pond and
That in coming down the gun was acci-
dentally discharged He either fell in the
boat which was tied to the tree or else
he staggered to it and made an effort to
get to the shore. The boat drifted proba-
bly, fifty yards from the tree and was
capsized, being leaky vessel.
