PROBABLY SHOT BY HUNTER.
Sarrell Sawyer of Townshend, Aged
Man, Slain ON First Open Day.

Brattleboro, Dec. 2.-Shot by a hunt
er's bullet, the lifeless body of S4rrell
Sawyer Of Townshen1, a deer hunter
81 years old, was found about 8 o'clock
yesterday morning by Joseph Snow,
another deer hunter.
Mr.. Sawyer was shot through the
heart and fell in his tracks, as his rifle
was found beside him on the ground.
He is believed TO have been killed by
stray bullet but he may have been
mistaken for a deer. If shot at by mis-
take the person doing the shooting did
not make his identity known, as the
Townshend authorities have no knowl-
edge Of who fired the shot.
The body of Mr., Sawyer was found
by Joseph Snow Of Townshend, who
also was deer hunting. II was about
three-quarters Of mile from the home
Of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Watson ON west
HILL between Townshend and West
Townshend. Mr.. Snow says he thinks
Mr. Sawyer had been dead about half
an hour when the body was found.
Mr. Sawyer lived with Mr. and Mrs.
Watson, Mrs Watson being his daugh-
ter He went there about three years
ago. from his native town of Peru.
Although Of an advanced age, Mr..
Sawyer was as active as many men far
younger and was an experienced hunt
er. He looked forward with anticipation
to the opening OF the deer season and
was out earIy with his rifle.
When Mr.. Snow found the BODY he
went to the Watson home and gave the
news. Mr. Watson is one Of the Sc.
lectmen Of Townshend, but he wished
to have another member Of the board
see the body and so went to the home
Of O. b. Dauchy and telephoned to
Selectmen L. s. Allbee, who went with
him.
