Discharge of
Air Rifle Injuries Boy
Marcellus Fuchs Has Very Narrow
Escape from Serious Injury
Monday evening

Monday evening a group Of boys
near the Schoenhoff home on Birch
street were discussing Halloween
pranks, when Robert Schoenhoff, the
II year-old son Of Mr.. and Mrs. J.
B. Schoenhoff, discharged an air
rifle. The gun was pointed toward
the ground, and the BIB bullet after
striking the cement sidewalk took an
upward course and struck Marcellus
Fuchs, the 12-year-old son of Mr..
and Mrs. M. Fuchs, on the upper lid
of the right eye. Fortunately the
bullet travelled upward, and, but lit
tie damage resulted.
Mr.. Schoenhoff was summoned
and hustled the injured lad to DIR.
Moynihan where an X-ray located
the bullet, and it was removed.
Marcellus was to church the next
day and attended school again We'd
nesday.
There have been>a number of cruel
reports put in circulation relative to
this accident, but it was purely ac-
cidental. At the time of the n1ishap
young Fuchs was standing about 10
feet away from the rest of the boys
and was not taking any part in the
proceedings. This is verified by
both lads and by the fathers of the
two youngsters.
All parties interested are mighty
thankful that the outcome of the ac-
cident resulted no more seriously.
