CALUMET BOY VICTIM
OF HUNTING ACCIDENT
Youth Named Spehar Meets Death in
Sad Accident Near Phoenix-Gun is
Accidentally Discharged and Victim
Receives Terrible Wound-lnquest is
Conducted.

The first fatal hunting accident of
the season in the copper country and
one of the most deplorable in the upper
peninsula, occurred near the Phoenix
location yesterday afternoon, when Pc
ter Spehar, the 19-year-old son of Mr..
and Mrs. Mike Spehar of Calumet, was
accidentally killed by a gun in his own
hands. The young man had been hunt
ing with his father and death resulted
from the accidental discharge of the
gun.
1t appears that the boy and his faith
er with one other companion were
hunting together and that they sepa-
rated on the deer trail, hunting in diff
ferent directions. The boy climbed up
on a stump for observation purposes
and attempted to draw the gun up aft
er him, grasping it by the barrel. In
some manner the trigger became
caught, and the weapon, which had
been loaded with buckshot was dis
charged. He received n severe wound
i'm the thigh, and the shot Travelled up
wards. The boy called his father, but
the wound had been fatal. and before
held could be summoned he passed
away. The accident took place on the
Schultz farm.
w. T.. Smith of Mohawk held an In
quest this morning. and after hearing
the testimony, a verdict of accidental
death was returned. The jurors We're:
John Shields. Henry Peterman, Fabian
Yando Nick Lenten, Theodore knecht-
ges and John Blondon.
The remains of the unfortunate
youth were brought to Calumet at noon
today. The funeral will probably be
held on Sunday afternoon, with SER
vices at the st. Josephs church of CAL
umet and interment in Lake View.
