WOMAN ACCIDENTALLY SHOT.
Brandon Recluse in Habit of Keeping
Revolver Under Her Pillow

BRANDON. oct. 21.-What was first
thought to be attempted suicide and later
turned out to be an accidental shooting
was discovered here late Tuesday eve
ming when Miss Flora Griswold of Union
street was found in bed with a bullet
wound in her left breast. She was rest
ing comfortably last evening.
Miss GrisWold, a lifelong resident of
Brandon. is about 60 years of age and
has lived alone for the past few years in
her home on Union street. She has been
in the habit Of having a loaded revolver
under her pillow each night for self pro
lection on account of living so secluded a
life.
When the doctor entered the room she
told him she did not know what was the
matter and he informed her she had been
shot. She did not know how it hap
pened, and could not recall what time the
accident occurred.
The revolver was found on the floor
and the general opinion is that when she
put the weapon under her pillow it was
accidentally discharged. DR.. Estabrook
said that if blood poisoning did not fol
low the patient has a good chance for re
CUVcry.
