Accidentally Kills Wife

Alabama Farmer Says He Did Not Know Pistol Was Loaded

Columbus, Ga., July 24 – H.T. Dudley, a well known farmer of Russell County, 
accidentally killed his wife at their home at Uhland, Ala.

He was sitting at the table with his wife and children eating melon.  He had 
taken his pistol from his pocket and laid it on the table.  After eating he 
arose, took the pistol in his hand to put it up and in some way accidentally 
discharged it.  The ball struck Mrs. Dudley in the right temple, inflicting a 
wound from which she died soon after.  Dudley did not know the pistol was 
loaded.  Mrs. Dudley was 25 years old and leaves besides her husband three 
children.
