A phone message from b'ort Lawn yesterday morning brought the distressingly sad news to Lancaster that our esteemed towns man, Maj. J. M. Kiddle, maua ger of The Review,had accidentally shot, and almost instantly killed his little grand-son, U.J. Macko roll, Jr., of Yorkvillo, whilo squirrel hunting in the woods on ! Mr. J as. Lilack's river bottoms near Fort Lawn. Maj. Kiddle, hisson, Mr. James Kiddle, and his little grand-son, and Cube Kiddle, col., whom they carried with them, went over to tho river on the train the evening before, camping out that night, | so as to be ready bright and early j yesterday morning for the hunt. I It was about S o'clock when the accident happened. Maj. Kiddle was watching for a squirrel which he had Been on a treo on a very steep hillside. Little Kobby had been left in the valley some distance below while tho Major climbed the hillside. Watching intently for . the reappearance of tho squirrel in the tree, the Major heard a sudden rustling in the undergrowth and on looking in the directiou of it was sure that he saw the tail of a squirrel, and aiming a little below it, fired. Supposing he had killed a squirrel he started to got it and was ll ArrifiO/l nfKnn ' 1 1 uvi 1 IUVU n null IICU1 UJg L11U piBCO on hearing his little grand son say "Grand-pa you've shot me." The little follow had gono down the valley a short distance and was doubtless endeavoring to creep noiselessly through the undergrowth up the hillside to where his grandfather was, when probably a little of liis hair showing from the undergrowth was mistaken for a squirrel's tail. Maj. Riddle took the little fellow up in bis arms und carried him to a spring near by and bathed his face, lie apparently endeavored to speak again but closing his bright little eyes, all was soon over. The distressed cries of the almost distracted grandfather attracted Ins son and the colored man who hurried to the scene, reaching there just as the little fellow breathed his last. The body was carried on a quilt to the railroad, a distance of a niilo or! more, to await the arrival of the , train which brought it on to Lancaster. In the meantime while , Maj. Riddle and the colored man . remained with t lie corpse, Mr. I James Riddle wont up to Fort Lawn and phoned the sad news hero, which was at once phoned | to tlio parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Mackoreil, at Yorkvillo. On the arrival of the L. & C. train the remains were taken to the homo of Ma j. Riddle. The sorely stricken parents arrived an hour later on the train from Yorkville. Maj. Riddle was completely overcome by the distressing acci dent and is confined to his bod from the severe shock to his nervous system. In his sad misfortune the entire community deeply sympathizes with him. The parents too have the heartfelt sympathy of everybody in tho loss of their bright little son, who was a general favorite in this community, where he spent much of his time with his grand-parents. Bobby was 8 years old July 27th last, and was an exceptionally bright boy. His precociousnesy, affability and po1:4 ?4--1 ? * i uiouvaa uumciuu everyoouy to him and made everybody love him.
