Because he Jms accidentally frijot
nnd killed two -men within tho ln,st '.
four years, friends and neighbors .of ,
Owen Wilson are endeavoring to de
termine today if there is not somo
way in which ho can bo prevented
by law from carrying firearms. Tho
latest tragedy occurred Sunday, when
he shot and killed, his brother, John
Wilson, nt Sams Valley. Four yenrs
ago Mr. Wilson accidentally shot nnd
killed a friend with whom ho wnK
huntiug. A son of J. L. Hoe was tho
victim nt that time aud was mistaken
for a deer. ' "
Sunday's tragedy came in tho
afternoon when Wilson, nccompanicd
by his brother, started out to find
norae hogs which had strayed, tnking
with them guns for use providing
they should run across any game. A
short distance from the house Wilson
went to throw a shell into (he gun,
when it wns discharged, the contents
lodging in the j-oungcr Wilson's bnck.
Medical aid was summoned, but tho
young man died shortly afterward.
Coroner Kellogg is holding nn in
quest todny over tho remains, not
because it is believed that the young
man wns not killed ncoidentally, but
because it is thought that Owen Wil
son does not use due precaution ill
handling firearms. Tho young mnn
is prostrated with grief.
The parents of the young men livo
nt Seattle. Tho father, David C. Wil
son, is a pioneer resident of Sums
Valley. Two sisters of tho young
man arc also living in this county.
Mrs. Wilson, tho mother of tho
young mon, is said to he in poor
honlth, nnd it is feared that news of
the tragedy may kill her. News is be
