Mr. Aylsworth attempted to take the gun from the rack, when it was discharged the contents taking effect in the right breast and armpit, severing the main artery, which caused him to bleed to death in a brief time. His son and daughter hearing the report of the gun, ran to him when he exclaimed, "Oh my God what have I done? I'm shot." they caught hold of him and led him to the bed, when he gasped and fell back dead. The deceased was a son of the late David Aylsworth and resided on the farm which was formerly occupied by his father.
