On Tuesday afternoon Miss Nancy, daughter of Reub Bryant,: a promi- nent business man of Adrian, wasac- eidentally shot with a 22-calibre tar- get rifle, in the hands of a girl com- panion; the bullet passed through her belt,“ was deflected by a corset stay, but entered the abdomen. It was located by the doctors in the muscles of the back, but whether or not it passed through the intestines had not{been determined at this writ- ing. Miss Bryant is only 16 years of age, a pretty, bright and vivacious rl, the idol of her parents anda general favorite with her sehool- mates.{:She-and a girl companion, whose name we did not learn, had taken the target rifle out to practice, and the result was one of those un- forseen and deplorable accidents which may cost a valuable young life. Dr.cCoeper, of Boonville, a fa- mous surgeon, the girl’s granilfather, was telegrapher for, and will proba- bly operate on her.
