Turtle.

Published in the Lake County Independent, Libertyville, Illinois on Friday, June 23, 1905

     While fishing near Carmi, Jasper Jamerson caught a turtle and, tangling it in the air, dared his companion, Tom Hobbs, to shoot it off the line. Hobbs fired, the rifle ball striking the turtle’s shell and glancing through Jamerson’s face, caused probably fatal injuries.
