Serious Gun Accident in Bovey Tracey: A son of Mr. Pinsent of Whitstone Farm, Bovey Tracey, met with a serious accident recently. On going to look after the sheep he carried his gun with him. While tending the sheep he placed his gun through a hurdle. After finishing he grasped the barrel with the right hand, and while pulling the gun back through the hurdle a jerk must have caused it to discharge. The contents lodged in the fleshy part of his forearm, shattering the muscle. The unfortunate young man is doing well, but it is feared that he will never have the full use of the two smallest fingers of that hand.
