A SHOT GUN TRAGEDY.
Little Ward CrOwStOn a Thirteen
Year Old BOV Killed.

Ward NARROW Crowston, aged thirteen
years and the oldest son of MIR. and Mrs
l. Crowston, of this city, residing on
Fourth street, was shot and instantly
killed Monday aftern oon while out
hunting dncks with party of young
boys at the slough on the Jos. Hamann
farm two miles north of town. There
we're fourteen boys in the party and the
death of little Ward Crowston is as
cribed to the accidental discharge of a
hammerless shot gun in the hands of
Will Coverston, who is about sixteen
years old and was the senior member of
the party of boy hunters. The accident
happened while four or five of the boys
we're sitting in group at the edge of
the slough along the railroad track.
Less than ten feet separated Coverston
from his companion who received the
shot as the gun was lifted from the
ground where he sat. The charge strnck
young Crowston in the neck under the
right ear, death following instantly.
The carelessness of Conversion is severe
ly censured and without doubt the sad
happening will have the effect of fewer
boys under age being allowed the use of
firearms. Word was brought to town as
speedily as possible, the summons being
responded to by Co. Coroner Gibson.
DR.. Mcqueen and DR.. Mckay but the
lifeless body showed the boy had been
beyond medical aid ever since the shot
was fired. No inquest was necessary as
everything plainly showed how the sad
tragedy occurred,
The funeral yesterday afternoon from
the Baptist church was conducted by
Rev. S. j. Buck and assisted by Mr.. T.
N. Hagen, the many beautiful flowers
surrounding the casket plainly showing
the deep sympathy of the community
for the sorrowing parents.
