JAMES DREW DIES THURSDAY
Complications From Accidental Shotgun Wound Cause
James Drew, 15, of near Richland, died Thursday morning at 11:45 o'clock at 
Boyette's clinic of complications resulting from an accidental shotgun wound 
received last Saturday afternoon.

Entering a poultry house at his home to shoot at wharf rats that were 
attacking the chickens, the youth stumbled, causing the shotgun to fire, 
shattering his right leg between the ankle and knee.

Complications necessitated amputation of the leg above the knee on Monday.

James was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Drew.
