George Short, aged II years, who
on Tuesday Of last week shot and
killed Paul Mccall, aged 10 years,
in a field near the Elkton High

for the March term of Court. Two
other boys, II and II years old,
were the only witnesses of the trag-
edy. which was due to the careless
ness of young Shorts elder broth
er. who left the revolver within his
reach. and the lack Of discretion OF
a hardware dealers clerk, who sold
him five cartridges, the last OF
