D., Shot by a Friend While Hunting. BLOOMINTON, S.D., Nov. 23-Banker Thomas A. Short, of Edgerton, this county, met a horrible death at an early hour in the morning. In company with a party of friends he went to the Missouri river goose hunting and the party had secreted themselves awaiting the early morning flight of the birds from the river to their feeding grounds. Upon the approach of a flock to within shooting distance Charles Beebe, a young hardware merchant, raised his gun to fire and at the same instant Short, who was but five or six feet in advance, suddenly rose to his feet, receiving the entire charge of buckshot from Beebe's gun in the head, blowing the back of the head almost to pieces and scattering the brains in a horrible manner.Submitted by Gloria Graves (#48132968)
