    From undated newspaper item:

    Nearly Another Hunting Tragedy

    Hugh Wilson, of York County, Shot Through Arm in Fusilade of Companions.

    Harvey Station, NB, Nov 2 -- Hugh Wilson, of the Rear Settlement, had a very narrow escape from death yesterday afternoon while hunting big game in company with three other young men.  It seems that they located a deer which took refuse in a thick clump of woods near the Dead Brook.  The men attempted to surround the deer, which made a bolt for liberty, coming into sight of some of the hunters, who opened fire on it.  Mr Wilson happened to be in the line of fire and received a bullet through his arm near the shoulder.  Dr. Dougan who dressed the wound, states that the bone was not injured and expects that Mr Wilson will be around in a short time, but if the bullet had been three inches nearer to his body, it would have been fatal.

 

    From undated newspaper obituary:
