On Wednesday afternoon last, John H. Fahringer, son of John Fahringer, living on the Bitzer farm in Liberty township, while out in the barnyard shooting sparrows met with an accident which resulted in his death the next day. His gun in some manner exploded accidentally, the whole charge of shot striking him in the head. It was some hours after the accident before his body was discovered and when found he was unconscious and remained so until 6 o'clock Thursday morning when death came to his relief. Mr. Fahringer was in the 17th year of his age, and was an exemplary young man. The funeral took place on Saturday from the Reform church in Liberty Center.
