HB Herald, June 21, 1894 Death - FLYNN - At Shakespeare-road, Napier, on June 20th, Bridget, the beloved wife of Joseph FLYNN, aged 33, leaving a sorrowing husband and daughter and son. R.I.P. - Home papers please copy. At the Magistrate's Court yesterday, before Mr J.S. LARGE, J.P., a man named John WILSON was charged with drunkenness. As he was in a shaky condition from drink he was remanded for a week to be dealt with by the gaol surgeon..We are informed that this man came to town a few weeks ago with £50, and that he quickly got rid of the lot, and on Tuesday night he begged a shelter from the Salvation Army. Not being able to sleep he wandered into the streets before 4 o'clock yesterday morning, and was so evidently unfit to take care of himself that he was locked up. A young man named Frank SMITH, who has been on Maraekakaho station for a number of years, met with a bad gun accident on Tuesday afternoon. Having shot a hare he dismounted from his horse and picked up the game, placing his gun, which had one barrel loaded, against a wire fence. He then remounted, and as he lifted the gun by the mozzle, the trigger caught in the wires and the charge went through his right wrist. He galloped back to the station and Mr A. M'LEAN had a team of horses harnessed and conveyed the sufferer to Hastings, where he was attended by Drs. LINNEY and NAIRN. The injured man was put under chloroform, his wound was attended to, and he is doing as well as can be expected. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No virus found in this incoming message.
