SHOTGUN ENDS 2 LIVES
THANKS6IVIN6 HUNT HAS FATEL AND
TRA6IC ENDING
ACCIDENT OR MURDER?
(Guy Kogri-s untl Prentiss Mo?rc,
.Vk?I II and lit Vrare, Found
in Pee Deo Swamp
With (Ghastly (Gunshot
Wounds Through
Their IkKlies.
Leaving home on Thanksgiving
day for a hunt in Pee Dee swamp,!
Guy Rogers and Prentiss Moore, two ;
ooys aged 11 and 13 years, were
found dead within a few yards of
each oiher Saturday morning by a
1 J searching party that had been
i i scouring the country for two days
in quest of the missing boys. In
the back of young Rogers was a
ghastly gunshot wound and in the I
' ; side of young Moore was another
i ghastly wound showing where a
, load of shot had entered and penetrated
the heart. Both boys must
| have died instantly. The scene of i
the tragedy was near a deep ditch
' in an open field partly concealed
? from the view of near-by n?gro
? cabins by a bunch of tall weeds.
( i The death of the youths is
j shrouded in mystery. There was
* nothing to indicate that the boys
had been murdered, yet how both
> could have been killed accidentally
by the same gun is a mystery which
' cannot be fathomed. The supposi?
tion is that one of the boys was in
* advance of the other. The gun held
* b.. the boy in the rear was dis*
charged and the load entered the
^ back of the boy ahead. Realizing
that his companion had been shot
* the other boy threw his gun across
r the ditch and attempted to cross
9 over to the aid of his companion.
When the gun struck the ground on
* the other side of the ditch it was
? discharged and the boy in the rear
v received the entire charge in his
* left breast. This is the only the*
cry that can be advanced, although
^ it does not appear to be a plausible
one. Such an accident is pos*
sible, but so singular as to appear
? highly improbable. Following is
the nress account of tho torriKio
tragedy.
* Bennettsville, Nov. 26.?The dead
bodies of Guy Rogers and Prentiss
* Moore were found this morning
* about 10 o'clock.
, As reported in the News and
Courier to-day, these two boys left
* home Thursday morning on a hunt*
ir.g trip. The went to Gardner's
* Bluff, hitched their horse and
* buggy and nothing definite could be
* learned of their whereabouts until
, the bodies were found to-day.
Load Passed Through llody.
* Printiss Moore, the son of Mrs.
? ' Emily E. Moore, and the younger of
* the two boys was found lying 011 the
* south side of a branch about five
* feet deep. His feet were toward the
* bottom of the branch, and he
clutched a briar between his fingers.
* An examination showed that the
? load from a shatgun had entered
, his body from the side near the
edge of the shoulder blade, ranged
s towards the middle of the chest,
passing through the body. The entire
load, shot and wad, was lying
underneath his clothes, in front of
the chest.
11 Shot Through HeartGuy
Rogers, a son of County
Tieasurer N. B. Rogers, and the
. older of the boys, was found in the
bottom of the branch, only a few
r feet from the body of young Moore.
1 Hij face was turned down , his
_ body was nearly in a kneeling posif
tlon, with his head in the edge of
the water, i~ a puddle of blood.
? He. too. was wnunrtpd with n ahnt.
? gun, the load entering directly into
8 the heart from the front, passing
j through the chest, shattering the
ribe on the rear side, some of the
" shot burying themselves in the skin
t of the back. One wad, that between
ir the powder and the shot, was
found inside the shirt, near the
wound. The wound in young Rog'
ers ranged slightly down from the
i, front.
8 Shotgun Nearby.
A double-barrel shotgun was
tound on the brink of the branch,
1 the muzzle slightly elevated, pointr
ing toward the ditch, one trigger
g' cocked and in the breech was
- caught a small part of young Rogers
shirt. One barrel, the one with
the cocked trigger was found
l^empty. The second barrel contain *d
ah empty shell, and another
' enhpty shell was found within a
' fef^nlehes of the muzzle of the
Tlje branch runs through a broad
field.\ An overgrown hedge covered

Accident, upr
Many think icMMwBleally Impossible
to reMnclkr Wf |Ma wtth the
theory of Md4ekLJM*iBotk(n( has
developed to point conclusively to
the theory of murder.
The coroner's inquest adjourned
late this afternoon to meet again
next Wednesday, when additional
testimony will be taken with a view
to throwing further light upon what
now seems to be an impenetrable
uijstery.
Baby Hanf(inx.s T?h> Frequent.
The following is taken from the
columns of the Walterboro Press
and Standard:
Monday, the 14th inst., the Infant
son of Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Smith, of
Cottageville, was placed to sleep iD
a cot. His mother on going back in
about an hour to see how the baby
was sleeping, found that he had, in
some manner, got caught between
the rods of the ircn cot and was
dead.
Such accidents are not altogether
uncommon. Not many weeks ago we
read of a similiar accident in another
state, and if our memory
does not mislead us we have a hazy
recollection of having read of a
number of deaths under similiar
circumstances in other sections of
the nation within recent years. Of
course such tragedies are to be
greatly deplored. Anyone must
sympathize with a parent who loses
an offspring under such sad and
tiagic circumstances, but unless
something is done to prevent such
i .accidents in the future we shall continue
to read of them, express our
iegrets and forget the incident until
another infant life is sacrificed
to remind us that death lurks betweeu
the rods of the comfortable
and harmless looking Iron bedstead.
At a first glance it apears to be a
small matter, but it is in the smallest.
matters that the greatest danger
lies because the danger is most
easily overlooked. We have read of
the tragedies of the folding bed.
Numerous lives were sacrificed before
popular indignation rose up
iliH lpfricloto/1 IKA * 1 *

of existence. In many states the
use of the folding bed in hotels and
public sleeping places is prohibited.
If legislation was necessary to
protect the lives of those who were
old enough to take care of themselves
why should not the aid of
the statutes be invoked to protect
the lives of those who are not old
enough to take care of themselves?
i Or if the matter does not come
within the province of the law-makers
the press might take it up and
point out to thoughtless mothess
the danger that lies between
the rods of the iron bed.

New Railroad for Mullins.
Mullins Messenger.
It is now said that the Latta
Branch Railroad will be extended
j and connect with the road from
Conway to Aynor just across the
Little Pee Dee from Mullins, and
that this connection of these two
branch road of the Atlantic Coast
Line system will pass directly
through Mullins. A direct line from
Latta to Cool Spring in Horry coun;
ty will carry this Latta branch road
just west of Mullins near the J. N.
Dethea farm. A slight deflection to
the left coming from Latta would
! intersect the main line of the Atlantic
Coast system just in West
Millins and passing out south to
Aynor the present terminal of the
Conway branch of the new road
would pass near Gapway church, or
a little west of it. This would depend
upon the right of way costs
somewhat, we guess.
This connection would place Mullins
the center of two railroads
leading generally south and north
besides the A. C. L. main line controlled
bv two errerit railrnnd nva
terns and ought to be of great advantage
to Mullins and will be if
the business men of the Mullins
community will but take advantage
of their possibilities and make Mullins
what she can and ought to be
made.
The Messenger will welcome the
new railroad to MullinB. and will
6hake hands with Latta and Conway
as it has with Dillon over the
North and South Carolina road cor- a
diallv and rejoice with all these ^
progressive neighbors in our future
prosperity. We shall expect to see
this nw road from Lattea, or rather
Clio, or perhaps McColl, go on to
deeper water at Southport, and the
North and South Carolina extended
Georgetown and finally to Charleston,
maybe by way of Conway, too.
With these extensions by wav of
Mullins, and then the Raleigh and
Charleston road now stopping at
NiRrion extended down through the
brittons creek section of Marion
county and to Rosemary on the
Georgetown and Western road,
thence to Charleston and McBee.
Hartsville, Darlington and Florence
branch of the Seaboard Air Line
road, connecting with the Raleigh
and Charleston at Rosemary, the
Fee Dee section of the State would
be finely developed by these intersections
and cross intersections of
great railroad systems, the Atlantic
Coas' Line and the Seaboard Air
Line.
Let us watch, work and push
along the good prospects.
