Bernie LaTour Dies From Effect OF
Accidental Gun Shot Wound.

The saddeSt accident that has Oc-
cured in this locality for many years
happened Tuesday, from the result Of
which Bernie LaTOur died in the even
ing. Bernie, lad of about fifteen,
the son of Mrs. -.line LaT0ur, was
something OF nimrod often going out
for few hours shooting, either with
companies or alone. Tuesday morn
ing he started out early, and about
seven O clock shot ii bird in the under
growth east of the graveyard. Either
while hunting for the bird, or going
on after other game, his gun was &C.
cidently discharged, the entire load
| stricking him in the right side of the
stomach, tearing fearful hole into
his BODY from which portions of the
liver and intestines soon protruded.
The place where this accident occurred
was perhaps 100 wards from the road,
and in this terrible condition Bernie
spent the day, from about seven
o'clock in the morning until late in
the afternoon, before he was at length
discovered. Apparently having dis.
pared of being discovered where he
was he had managed to work his way
along, crawling on his back up to the
road, where he was finally found and
taken to the home of his mother.
Immediately upon being brought
home he was given medical attention.
but although conscious to the last he
was unable to rally, and passed away
within few hours.
The funeral services we're held in the
Catholic church at II O'Clock. Tues.
day morning, Rev. Father Peters, of
Jennings officiating, in the absense of
Father Roumbouts. lnterment was
made in the Catholic cemetary.
Out of respect to Bernie and his
mother, sister and brothers, the pub

ent were closed and practically all the
pupils OF his grades attended the fun
eral.

OF the family have the sincere sympa.
