INDIAN WOMAN KILLED
12-Year Old Sites Boy Acct
h. dantally Shoots Woman.

The accidental killing of Mrs,
Amanda Gould, an aged Indian
woman of the, Sites section by
David Corbett, 12-year-old boy
is told by the Sites Enterprise
as follows:
After the sad accident Sheriff
Eller was notified and arrived
late in the evening and after in
vestigating came to the conclu-
sion that death was due from an
accident and at once began to
question David Corbett, the r.
yer-old son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Silas
Corbett, who first notified his
parents of the shooting, and
who made the following state
ment to Sheriff Eller and Pro-
scouting Attorney B. Anger:
David Corbett, IL years of
age being duly sworn before J.
B. Burney, a justice of the
peace, in the presence of w. H.
Eller, sheriff of Idaho county,
State of Idaho.
Opposes and says that on
Thursday the 18th of June,
1919, I went to the home of
Amanda Gould about IL o'clock
and was sitting down talking to
her, she was sewing. l saw re-
volver hanging on the wall and
took it down and was playing
with it. l did not know it was
loaded. I pulled back the ham
mer and my thumb slipped off
and discharged the gun, she
groaned and fell over, / broke
the gun open, and the cartridge
fell on the floor, but the empty
shell stuck in the gun. I was
afraid when | saw what / had
done and ran home crying, told
my mother, Mrs. Ellen Corbett,
that Mrs. Gould had been shot
and was lying on the floor of her
house, | thought she would whip
me if ! told her that / done it
and that they would put me in
Jail. I was afraid to tell the
truth.
II am sorry that / done this,
it was an accident. She was al
ways good to me and gave me
apples and other things, often
eat dinner with her and went
fishing.
when the coroner asked what
knew / was afraid to tell him
the truth. wish / had told the
truth at first but I was afraid"
The above Statement cleared
up the entire matter, and the
sympathy is with the boy as
we'll as his parents in this UNI
fortunate affair, as Mr.. and
Mrs. Corbett are among the
foremost, substantial and high
ly respected citizens of the com
munity, and this unfortunate
accident has caused the deepest
sorrow within their home.
Mrs. Gould was about 80
years of age, and was born on
Salmon river. She has lived in
this section many years. Her
husband, Jay Gould, died 16
years ago.
Funeral services were held at
the home of the deceased by
Rev. James Dickson, assisted by
Rev. Robert Parsons and Rev.
j. H. Wood. where a large
crowd of sympathizing friends
had gathered to hear the last
sad rites.
Owen Gould, a grandson, is
the nearest living relative.
The remains were inferred in
the family burying ground be-
side those of her husband and
son.
