\ Sad Accident.

News reached tAe city early yester- day forenoon from Fergusonyile. where she had been visiting her sister, Mrs. Jack Ferguson, and family, that Miss Lillian Bernard. daughter of MT and Mrs. Chas Bernard. of this city, had been accidentally shot in the hand.
 Drs. Alley and Bogart were sent fer and sped as rapidly as possible to the home, in which deep gloom had set tied, and found the young lady with the third and fourth fingers and near ly half of the heshy part of her left hand shot away.
 We scarcely know how 1t happened, except that she vas in the yard with MT, Rodney Logan, who had just shot some chickens for dinner. Tie gun was lying on the fence while they were climbing over. and by some accident Miss Lillian stumbled, or in raising, her hand touched the barrel, pushing it backwards. and it exploded the shell of bird shot. with the above result.
 Her terribly woended and lacerated hand was dressed by the surgeons. and she is resting as well aS can be ex pected. though the shock to her nerves must have been fearful besides the pain of the shot.
 The Times deeply sympatIlizes with Miss Lillian and her relatives in their great soicitude and shock, anu hopes her injured hand will soon be quite well and not greatly impaired in its usefulness It was indeed most un- fortunate, and she has the kindly sym pathy of large circle of friends.
