The Cambria Freeman. (Ebensburg, Pa.) December 15, 1870
A serious if not fatal accident to Mr. Wm. Bradley, of Loretto, came very near
resulting from the accidental discharge of a pistol in the hands of Mr. Harry Jacob,
on Monday last. The latter gentleman was endeavoring to sell the weapon at the time,
and while handling it the pistol went off, the ball fortunately striking a knife in
Mr. Bradley's pantaloons pocket, from which it glanced off without producing more
serious injury than a slight flesh wound. Had the ball struck half an inch lower
down it would have severed one of the main arteries.
