The Herald And Advertiser, Newnan, GA April 26, 1901
Our popular townsman, Mr. M. G. Keith, was the victim of a painful accident 
Sunday night about 7 o'clock, from the effects of which he will probably be 
confined to his bed for several days.  Mr. C. H. Nelson was at the stables of 
the Messrs. Keith on the night in question, engaged in conversation with Mr. M. 
G. Keith, when he accidentally dropped a pistol from his overcoat pocket.  As 
the weapon struck the floor it was discharged, and the ball struck Mr. Keith in 
the right side, but came in contact with a rib and ranged upward near the 
spine.  Drs. Jones and Peddy were immediately called to attend the wounded man, 
and the ball was extracted without much difficulty.  He is doing as well as 
could be expected, and we are glad to learn that no serious consequences are 
anticipated.
