Belding Banner, Thursday, January 2, 1930
Gerald Wright, aged ten years, the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Wright, 
living a few miles northeast of Palo, was out hunting rabbits on Monday 
forenoon a short distance from the house, and about eleven o'clock or after, 
following the report of his gun, his parents heard him cry out in pain and 
rushing out to where the little fellow was, found he had accidentally shot 
himself, the shot entering his body below his right arm and coming out at this 
shoulder blade.

With all speed possible they took him to Palo, only to find Dr. Hargrave away 
from home, and they immediately went on to Ionia were he was taken to the 
hospital, but he passed away bfore reaching thie operating room.

Besides his parents, he leaves a brother, Harry, of Lansing, and three 
sisters, Mrs. Mabel Crampton of Grand Rapids; Mrs. Leota Lobdell, of Lansing 
and Ruth at home.
