Accident at Rulo - The eighteen year old son of George Adams while out hunting on Thursday met with an accident which may prove fatal. The young man while attempting to throw a stick into some brush, in some unaccountable manner came in contact with the trigger causing the gun to explode and the charge struck the young man on the forehead, and inflicted an ugly wound. Dr. Shepperd was immediately called and every attention given him. Latest reports say that he is resting as easily as could be expected.
