For Cause of Death of Philip Loomis —Warns Parents Against Use of | Firearms by Boys. The following text of the finding of Coroner Arthur G. Bill, issued Wed- | nesday, in the case of the death of Phillp T.oomis, should prove of spe- cial interest ih Windham county, es- pecially as it contains some very in- teresting facts in connection with ti tragedy that have mot heen published | and inasmuch as it the rec- | ommendation that legi measures | be passed governing the carrying -.r1 | fireanms hy minors The undersigned, coroner within and the county of Windham, ved notice of the sudden and vio- death of Phillp Loomis, aged t years, of Killingly. Conn. who @aied at the Day-Kimball hospital in Put- nam in said county on the 7th day of July, A. D. 1910, and having viewed | said body T proceedéd to hold an in- quest as to the cause and manner of having said death at my office in Danjelson, on the Sth day of July, 1910. From the testimbny taken at sakd inquest I find that said Philip Loomis died at Putnam, on_the 7th day of July, 1910, from the effects of a bullet wound In his head caused by the discharge of a rifle in the hands of one Robert V. Bridees of said Killingly, who with one Arthur Waterhouse, was engaged in firing at the limbs of certain trees on the shore of Alexander's lake. The said Philip Loomis and his compan- ion, Frederick Jobnson, being at the me passing near the northerly shore d lake in & rowboat, and com by tle foliuge of the trees from e view of sald Robert V. Bridges and Arthur Waterhouse I find that the said Bridges and Waterhouse were duly warned by Mr Louls G. Sayles that the firing of their rifles toward the lake and into the trees on the shore of the same was dangerous und should be discontinued That they promised they would not con- tinue firing in the direction of the lake. That shortly afterwards they again fired into the trees on the shore lfi Loomis, and from the effects of Wwhich he soon Sy Gl that the said Robert V.
