But for the fact that a button on his vest was just exactly where it was, Hugh Hart, a well known young man "living near the line of Grady and Thomas counties would probably have been killed by the accidental dis charge of a pistol which lie and his brother, Vernon Hari, were working. It seems that the young men were trying to insert a cartridge in a 38 caliber pistol, both of them working at it, when in someway just as the cartridge was forced into the chamber the gun discharged, hitting Hugh Hart in the che9t. The load hit the button of his vest and glanc ed, lodging in the side making a painful, but not dangerous wound. Dr. Kincaid of Pine Park, and Dr. Walker, of this place ex tracted the bullet and the young man is reported in good health. The Messrs Hart are sons of the Rev. A. T. Hart, living near Ballard’s mill on the Cairo and Jjhomasville public road, Miss Susie StnbQS came home from Fitzgerald Tuesday.
