AN ITALIAN BOY KILLED
Accidentally Shot Himself Through
the Head with Target Rifle.

A distressing accident occurred
yesterday afternoon on the Cameron
ranch, eight miles north Of Bryan, in
which an Italian boy lost his life.
Tony Catela, twelve or fourteen years
of age, was fooling with a target rife
when in some way 1t was discharged,
the ball entering his temple, produc-
ing a fatal wound, and death following
instantly.
1t seems that the older members OF
the family had gone to a wedding
near Hearne, and in their absence the
boy decided he would go hunting He
took the gun out in the yard and in
just few moments it was heard to
fire. A little girl who was nearby
heard the shot and, looking in the
direction from which the report came,
saw the boy prone upon the ground.
The alarm was given at once, but he
was dead when help reached him.
The family was summoned at once.
and the funeral was held this morn
ing, interment following in the Italian
cemetery in the northeastern part OF
the city.
