Going into the parlor and locking the door, she seized a loaded pistol and stepped out on the doorstep. The pistol was raised rais-ed to her head. The wondering mother stepped around the corner of the house just in time to see the fire from the pistol and to see her daughter fall to the earth with a groan. With a frantic scream the mother rushed forward to the scene of horror. Her fears were soon 1 quieted, however, as she found her daughter was uninjured and that the gate post bad received the contents con-tents of the weapon.
