Miss Bowman, of near Green creek,
last week. She was out in their
yard, and while in the act of pick
ing flower from the ground a bull
let cut across the back of her head,
cutting the hair to the skin as if
cut away with razor, knocking
her unconscious for some time. AT
last accounts she was not fully re-
covered. The shot was fired over
a mile away by Mr.. Ford at a
squirrel, the bullet glancing from
the ground. The gun used was a

range steel guns are a very danger
