Boy | Acci- dantally.*Shoots Woman. Amanda Gould, an aged’ Indian woman of the.Stites section by David Corbett, 12-year-old boy is told by the Stites Enterprise as follows: After the sad accident Sheriff Eller was. notified and arrived late in the evening and after in- Lyestigating came to the conclu- sion that death was due from an accident and at once began to question David Corbett, the 12- yer-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Silas Corbett, who first notified his parents of the shooting, and who made the following state- secuting Attorney B. Auger: “David Corbett, 12 years of age being duly sworn before J. B. Burney, a justice of the peace, in the presence of W. H. Eller, sheriff of Idaho county, State of Idaho. “Deposes and says that on Thursday the 12th of June, 1919, I went to the home of Amanda Gould about 11 o’clock and was sitting down talking to her, she was sewing, I saw a re- volver hanging on the wall and took it down and was playing with it. I did not know it was loaded. I pulled back the ham- mer and my thumb slipped off and discharged the gun, she groaned and fell over, I broke the gun open, and the cartridge fell on the floor, but the empty shell stuck in the gun. I was afraid when I saw what I had done and ran home crying, I told that Mrs. Gould had been shot and was lying on the floor of her house, I thought she would whip me if I told her that I done it and that they would put me in jail. I was afraid to tell the truth. © » “I am sorry that I done this, it was an accident. She was al- ways good to me and gave me apples and other things, I often eat dinner with her and went fishing. “When the coroner asked what I knew I was afraid to tell him the truth. - T'wish I had told the truth at first’ but Iwas afraid.” The.above statement cleared up the entire matter, and the sympathy’ is with the boy as well ‘as his parents in this un- fortunate affair, as Mr. ‘and Mrs, Corbett are among the! foremost, substantial and high- ly respected citizens of the com- munity, and. this unfortunate accident ‘has caused the deepest sorrow within their home. Mrs. Gould was about 82 years of age, and was born on} Salmon river. She has lived in| this séction many years. Her! husband, Jay Gould, died 16 years ago. Funeral services were held at, the home of the deceased by Rev. Jamés Dickson, assisted by | Rev. Robert Parsons and Rev. | J. H. Wood. where a large! crowd of sympathizing friends| had gathered to hear the last | sad rites. Owen Gould, a grand-son, is! the nearest living relative. | The remains were interred in| the family burying ground be-| side those of her husband and’ son, ACCEPTS. POSITION HERE, D. T.
