BOY’S TRAGIC DEATH.
Invercargill, Last Night. The death occurred in tragic circumstances to-day of a boy, George Gough, aged 13 years. At 5 p.m. the mother heard a shot in front of the house. Going to investigate she found the boy in the front bedroom dead with a shotgun beside him. The case is doubly tragic from the fact that three months ago the boy found his baby brother lyingdead in the perambulator apparently from suffocation. He had been depressed since. The police, after investigation, stated that appearances pointed to the boy having shot himself.
