Anthony Skivensky, a IS yeak old boy who has only one leg, hopped into the room where his father was dozing and hl3 twin brother, Stephen, sat reading a story of adventure.

There was a flash and a report, and Stephen fell from the chair, a gun wound, from which he- may die. In his shoulder. Horrified, his crippled brother, not -stopping for crutches, scurried from the house as best he could. He was found huddled in a cellar, some distance away. Anthony had found the revolver in a bureau drawer.
