Accidentally Kills Sister

Florence Purdee, aged 9, daughter
of prominent resident of Platte, was
shot and almost instantly killed as the
result of the accidental discharge of a
shotgun in the hands of her brother,
Willie, aged IL. The father had loaded
the shotgun for the purpose of shoot
ing at hawk which had been hover
ing over his yard, but the hawk proved
to be out of range, and he placed the
weapon in bedroom, leaving it loaded
SO there would be no delay if the hawk
again appeared. The little boy found
the weapon, and it was accidentally
discharged while his sister was not
over six feet from the muzzle. The
entire charge struck her in the neck
and chin, her chin being practically
blown off. She lived but a few
moments.
