(Obituary - Mrs. Emma Hamrick, widow of Dave Hamrick, living near
Bonanza, was shot and perhaps fatally wounded Thursday, when a 22 
caliber rifle in the hand of her son was accidentally discharged, 
the bullet striking her above the right hip and passing through 
the lower bowels. Drs. Kemper and Davis were summoned, and found 
the wound to be serious.  Dr. W. W. Long was called in and performed 
an operation, removing part of the injured intestine. She died on 
Friday night, Jan. 10, 1914. Elmer was helping his mother with the 
washing when he saw a chicken hawk after the chickens. He went in 
the house and got the rifle but when he returned the hawk was gone. 
His hands being wet when he started to let the hammer down, he let 
it slip and the gun was discharged. She was laid to rest in the 
Liberty cemetery.)
