SHOT WITH A PEA RIFLE
A BROTHERS' QUARREL. By Tel.|graph—Press Association. Waimate, Last Night. A young man named Thomas Scott was charged at the Magistrate's Court to-day with wounding his brother, Allan Scott, with a bullet from a pea-rifle, with intent to do grievious harm. He was remanded till the 18th, bail being fixed at £2OO and his own surety of £ 100. The brothers quarrelled at Redcliff on the 2nd of January, and it is alleged that accused fired across a paddock at Allan and missed him, but later he shot him at close quarters, the pellet entering his breast. The wound is not serious, but it is feared that the bullet has lodged in one of the lungs.
