Shot While Mink Hunting

A Milán dispatch to the Detroit Evening Journal last night says: About eleven o'clock yesterday Cyrus Wendhausen and Fred Reeves, aged 14 years, and Bert Van Worraer, a brother-in-law of young Wendhausen, were out hunting three miles south of t his village. They had run a mink into a brush heap, and Wendhausen leaned his gun against a log and climbed the brush to scare it out. He then reached for his gun from the opposite side of the log, grasped it by the muzzle, and in drawing it to him the hammer caught on the log and the gun was discharged, shooting him through the heart. Justice Bentley impaneled a jury, which returned a verdict in accordance with the above facts.
