the home Of Jasper Pitman, living
near Skaggs last FRIDAY morning in
which the four.year old son Of Mr..
and Mrs. Putnam was killed by his
older brother, aged nine.
The children had been left alone
at the ho use and the story Of the
older boy was that he took the gun
and was "trying tc find out il it
was loaded" when the weapon was
discharged, the entire load taking
effect in the small boys face and
head, killing him instantly.
The mother, who was picking
cotton in a field near by, heard the
shot and fastened to the house TO
find the younger boy already dead
and the other Mortified at what be
had unintentlonally done.
1t was, indeed a sad affair, and
another Of many grave warnings
that parents should never leave
loaded weapons within the reach OF
children.
