Sunday last while Freddie, the 13-
year-old son of Fred. Watschke,
with several other boys, We're play
ing near the railroad tracks east of
town, stray bullet from 20 rifle
struck him in the jaw penetrating
the bone to such an extent that up
to the present time it has been i'm
possible to extractsthe bullet, After
receiving the wound the boy was
assisted home by his comrades. Con-
siderable alarm was felt by those
present, who were attracted by the
boys cries, as to the extent Of his
injury. DR.. Pentall was found; to
be out of town, but luckily DIR. Boyd
of Redwood was in town, and after
examining the wound announced
that no large blood vessels were
injured. At this point he left the
case to DIR. Penhall who located the
bullet, imbedded in the jaw bone.
1t was decidedly close call for the
boy, and we hope will be an object
lesson to persons to be more careful
in the use of firearms. The practice
of shooting promiscuously is all toe
common around town.
