Killed While Hunting.

Coroner Paris was this morning call ed to Dodd's Ford on the Cahaba river. ten miles from the city. to investigate the death of Riley Brazier. Jr.. the 19- year-old son of Riley Brazier, Sr., who was found dead ip the woods near his home with load of buck shot in his side. The young man went out hunting this morning, according to the renort re- ceived by the coroner, and at the time he was killed was in the woods not far from where his brGther and several other parties were engaged in work. An hour after he left home the parties at work heard young Brazier cry out and a moment later they heard the re- port of a gun. This was followed by another cry of pain, and then silence prevailed The listeners hurried to the place and found the young man in dying condition with h;s gun some ten feet away IL is not known whether Brazier accidentally shot himself or was murdered. His gun was empty when found. which leads to the belief that it was the weapon that inflicted the fatal injury. But for the fact that he was heard to cry out before the gun was fired excites much suspicion. and the coroner will make a full investi- gation.
