tange, Lieut. Stewart aud myaeli' wero to fire, bnt Lieut. Stewart 

 was not ready, aud Mr. Hooper BBked pormiasioii to firo a few 

 ebota. He got up and when he fired, I took up my rbJe. I noticed 

 the dangor flag ou the proper poat and proceeded to take aim. My 

 eyit was tlieu cm my ride sights aud target. The instant I pulled 

 the ti-igger 1 saw the mnrker run out. The next instant lie toppled 

 over. 1 t'ot much excited. .\ few of the firing party went up and 

 wheu the}- returned uifoiined mo that he was womjded on the hip. 

 ] i !i! I- V. ,1,1 „|, :■,„■! 8poke to him. He naid he was badly hurt. He 

 ■ -' I i ' iHh they would eome'— meaning the doctors. Dr. 



y-. . -, ,|. -;,,,!;, :;nd Jti'. Heartz shortly expired. 



'■ t helle^e tliat all the ordinary aud neeessary signal piwatilions 

 v.-ero taken in this mateii. I attrihnto the aecident to tlie man's 

 going ont to the target when he knew tliat ehoothig was "rogress- 

 iug. I eannot account for (lie fact of his going out, I attribute 

 his deatti to a mere aecident, which was totall.f unavoidable ou my 

 part The deceased was in the butt when I arrived ou the shooting 

 range. I did not sec liim until ho wa3 lying dying on the ground. 

 He does not belong to my company. Wo were always on the most 

 ititimate terms." 



Cttpt. Lougworth sapieutly reiilied to the i|uestion of the coroner 

 that the practices were all eomlue'ted a^' carefully as posKible. He 

 did not think there was any danger at tlie butts ■ 07i the contrary, 

 tUuugbt them perfectly safe, but lio thotighl the system of mark- 

 ing Bhonld be improved. 



Anothta- wituoss said when qneatlOJicd by the coroner "that the 

 dauger-rlag was up when 5[j-, Hoojkt fired, butthf deceased took it 

 down when Cajit, Lou;?worth was about tiring, but the captain did 

 not se(! liim taking it do«u ; neither did any of us. The Hag is 

 \'iHible from wiiere we (ire, bnfc if a person was taking sight hewcmld 

 not Hee it. I have large experienee in shootnig mafebos and believe 

 that all the signal precautions wen, taken in this match which ai'e 

 taken in ntliers, i allnljuie tl,e death of Mr. Heartz to connng 

 out after nunldng a shr.t end when the, Iiand was playing." 



T'ho Jury liually concluded " that the deceased eame to his death 

 from a ball tired from a ritle in the hands of Capt. F, S, f,.,i,f;- 

 worth, and that the accide'ut occurred on account of the dceaKed 

 noglenting to show his danger signal before leaving the butt."
