Upon returning to the house Mr..
Lawrence went into a room to put
away the revolver that he had been
carrying. He took it from his
pocket and as he raised it to place it
on top Of chiffonier, the gun slipped
from the scabbard and fell upon the
floor striking the hammer. Mr..
Lawrence had always been careful
about carrying gun with the ham
mer over a loaded shell. How it
came to be 80 at that time he did not
know. AT the sheriffs Office when
doing clerical work. hs often left tho
gun laying on the table, and it is
possible that some one had been ex-

were soon at the house. AS soon as
sufficient time had elapsed, an opera
was performed and the perforations
closed. Some men Of strong vitality
might have recovered. But Mr..
Lawrence was never very strong
physically, he had lost a great deal
Of blood and he did not have the
strenth to rally. 1t was hoped on
Monday that his strength might
prove sufficient to pull him through
but on Tuesday morning it was seen
that he was sinking and he breathed
his last about a quarter Of an hour
before 200 o'clock.
Nothing has ever happened in
Dodge City which was more uni
vsrsally and sincerely deplored than
this sad accident which resulted in
Mr.. Lawrencs's death. He was
we'll known over the county, and he
made few, if any enemies. He was
prominent in local politics here, be-
ing one Of the leading workers in
