He was living with Boss Hall and it was at first thought that the lad had committed suicide. However, Judge Ellis acting coroner; after an examination of the case, arrived at the conclusibn that accidental causes were responsible , for the death. Oreginald had stolen a 'lemon squeeze' gun from the house and v gone down into the piney woods, accompanied by two companions of eleven and four years of age. The , elder one, who had gone about forty-five yards ahead suddenly heard shot and heard a bullet "whizzi* over his head", as he said. Then ; ; there came another shot. Running back, he found Oreginald dead. The boy was holding the gun in both, hands and had a bullet through his heart. From the powder burns on his hands, it is believed that the boy who did not understand weapons J and never had one in his hands before, was trying to unlock th? breech when the gun exploded.
