Mud Daubers Had
Filled Gun Barrel.

A deplorable accident took place
on last Friday morning which re.
suited in Nathan Jackson losing his
left hand, and he can consider him
self as fortunate that the accident
resulted no worse.
Jackson traded for a shotgun sever
al daysago and had been warned that
one barrel was heavily loaded and
had not been used for several
months, and that the powder had
probably become packed and the
shot rusty. On Friday he and o
younger brother got into a skiff and
rowed up to the johnson bend oiths
river, where they landed and pro.
ceeded up the bank a short distance,
when Jackson determined to shoot
the load out OF the gun. The gun
burst, tearing his left hand entirely
off and throwing the barrel back
wards twenty feet into the river.
An examination of the burstsd gun
barrel shows that it had been made

and these had 80 completely filed
