Anniston Star November 28, 1934
Four-year-old Cecil Foster Tuesday was faced with blindness for the rest of his 
life the victim of a tragic and unusual accident. The child was sitting in front 
of a fire in his home. His mother, Mrs. Chester Foster, threw some wood chips 
from a box into the fire. In the box also was a shotgun shell. When the shell was 
accidentally placed in the fire it exploded and bits of shot punctured the pupils 
of both eyes of the child. Physicians at Garner hospital here said after an 
examination the child would be blind for life.
