THE DEATH OF MASTER OWEN L. KISSLING.

Coroner's Inquest.

Thk inquest before Dr. Philson, Coroner, to investigate the above lamentable occur rence, was hold at the house of Mr W. I. Taylor, Tamaki, yesterday, Tho principal witness was, of course, Walter Henry Taylor who accompanied the deceased on tho fatal shooting expedition. He stated :— On Thursday, May 14, de ceased, aged twelve years, and I were out shooting near the Tamaki Beach. We bad a doublobarrelled fowling-piece. I car ried the gun. Both barrels were charged with shot. About three o'clock p.m. we came to a holo in the ground, which I supposed to be a rabbit hole. I laid the gun down on tho ground, having previously discharged one barrel. I told deceased not to touch the gun. I had had a shot once before. Deceased sat down beside the gun, and I went to look for a stick to dig out the holo. I had not been gono \ more than two or three minutes when I heard a report of a gun accom panied by a scream. I was about 100 yards distant, and in full view of deceased, On looking roundls»w deceased lying on the ground. I ran up to him immediately, and found that he had been shot in the back of his head. He was alivo, and said to me, " I am shot." I took hino up in my arms and carried him a short way towards my father's house. I carried him about 50 yards, and waa then obliged to lay him down. When carrying him I told him to hold on my nock, and he said he would. 1 asked him how the thing occurred, but he was unable to speak. He was breathing when I la/d Him down. I then ran up to where a man named Dunn was working in a field, and asked him to come with me. I told Mr Dunn what had happened. and he told my father who was in the same field. We then went to the spot where tho deceased was lying. He was quite lifeless when we reached him. I observed where deceased bad been shot, and found a .large wound in the back of the skull. There was a great flood of blood on his clothes, and on the ground. When I first came to deceased ne was lying on his face, with his head pointing to the muzzle of the gun, and about a foot and a-half from it. I did not examine the gun, but it was not in the sameposition that it was when I laid it down. I tola him not to moddle with tho gun. Tho gun was at half cock whon I laid it down. I am unablo to give any ex planation as to how the Run went off. Wo hod a young water spaniel with ue* I had been out shooting alone previously, but never with deceased before. I have been in company with an elder brother shooting many times, and three times this season. I was never forbidden by my parents to go out shooting. The gun belongs to Mr Churches, one of the jury. I have not examined the gun since the acci dent. Deceased was a visitor at my father's house, and is a son of Mr Tbeophilus Kiss ling, of Parnoll. Ido not know whether he had boon in the habit of using fire-arms. William Dunn, form servant, deposed to boing called by the witness on Thursday afternoon, and finding deceasod lying dead with a large wound on -the head. One barrel of tho gun had been discharged re cently, and the other was loaded ; it was at half cock. Tho ground where the gun was found was covered with rushes and short ti-troo. He thought the trigger might havo caught in the ecrub, supposing the deceased drew it towards him by the muzzle.

Mounted Constable Kelly deposed that the gun was a faulty weapon, and would go oil' at half cock. The gun was highly dangerous to use. The jury returned a verdict that de ceased mot his death by the. accidental ex plosion of a gun.

A fine of 20« was imposed on" the jjirl Hunt, or 14 days' imprisonment, and the girl Munro was fined 10a or 7 days imprisonment, the Bench giving the option of a fine, owing to the tender years of the offenders,

It my recommendation is of any service, in common fairness I think it is due to you. Yours faithfully, B. A. GRANT.
