Snot Throagh tbe Arm Accidentally.
Oa Monday afternoon before the
time for the night hands to go to
work at the Cabarrus mills, Ran
Ragan:and Will Wallace, two small
boys, were near the gate at the
mill waiting for the change
hands. Will Wallace had a 32 call
bre pistol and commenced fooling
with it. One cartridge only was in
the pistoh By some means, while
trying to close it the cartridge fired,
sending the bullet through Ran.
Ragan's right arm abeut three
inches abovethe elbow. Ran. was
lying apon the ground watching
Wilrs manouvres at the time of the
aecidenl. He was carried home
and a physician was called, who
dresstd the wound. While the
physician pranounced the wound
not a serious one, still it should be
a warnicg to those boys who carry
pistols. It is, indeed, fortunate that
result in this case was no worse.
