THE VICTORIA ADVOCATE (VICTORIA, TEXAS)
Saturday,February 4, 1899, page 6

Madisonville, Texas, February 1 - Gus Bagwell, a well known citizen of Walker county, living near Cotton, was accidentally shot and instantly killed yesterday morning. While going to breakfast carrying some chairs, by some means, struck the gun which was in the rack over the door,
knocking it to the floor, when it was discharged, emptying the whole load of squirrel shot into his side, it ranging upward and lodging in his body.
