Mr. John Drummond
Mr. John Drummond, a young man of twenty, was playing with a pistol Saturday evening at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Drummond, at Lake Creek. He had unloaded part of the chambers, and doubtless though he had taken all out, and did not discover his mistake until he pointed the pistol at his own head and pulled the trigger. The shot struck him in the head inflicting a wound from which he died during the night. The bereaved family have the sympathy of a large circle of friends in this sad and tragic event.

(Cedartown Standard, January 17 or 24th, 1901)
