BRUNO CAMCS KILLED.

The funeral of Bruno Joseph Ca
mus, % years old, who was acciden-
tally shot and killed by his cousin,
Alphonse Camus, 20 years old, Sun
day morning while returning from a
hunting expedition in the woods be-
hind the Stanton plantation, was
held Monday afternoon at O'Clock
from the late residence of the de-
ceased at Behrman avenue and New
ton street. Camus was a son of
Mary Josephine Pererie and Arthur
S. Camus, who, together with several
brothers and sisters, survive him
Services were conducted at the
Church of the Holy Name of Mary.
and interment was in the st .Barthol-
omew Cemetery.
The accident which resulted in the
death of young Camus was a deplo-
rable one. The young men left Three
Mile Point at daylight Sunday and
proceeded to the swamp in the rear
of Stanton plantation. When about
two miles in the swamp they began
their return. Bruno walked in front
of Alphonse, who carried his shotgun
on his shoulder. AS they were pass
ing through a thickly wooded spot
| the barrel of Alphonse's shotgun
| caught in a limb of a small tree,
| causing the gun to fall forward and
explode. The No. s shot struck Bru-
no in the right leg, above the knee
When he saw his companion fall,
| Alphonse started on run to Stan
ton plantation to procure help. After
covering the two miles as fast as he
could tread his way through the
| swamp and woods, he returned to his
cousin with a wagon. Meanwhile the
blood had been pouring from Bruno S
wound and he was almost uncOn-
scious when the wagon arrived. Only
a half-mile was covered after the
wounded youth had been placed in
it when he expired.
Alphonse Camus was taken into
custody on a charge of manslaughter
but officials clear him of blame, say
ing it was an unavoidable accident
He was later released on bond by
Judge O'Donnell.

\ DENIAL.

An article was published in two of
our daily papers regarding a state
ment made by Mr.. Frank Redmond,
who was at Bay Adam during the re-
cent storm, stating that DR.. Kraft
was at Bay Adam during the storm,
where he met Mr.. Redmond, and as
sisted in caring for the injured.
DR.. Kraft desires to deny the re-
port that he was at Bay Adam dur
ing the storm, and no doubt his
name has been confused with that
of one of the physicians located al
the Bay.

More than seven hundred dollars
have already been subscribed, and
that the remaining three hundred
