Delbert Miller, son of Geo. Miller, northwest of Greenwood (Clark Co., Wis.), is in St. Joseph's Hospital, Marshfield, where he is recovering from a gunshot wound.

Last Sunday Delbert, in company with Arthur Meier and several other boys, had gone into the woods to hunt squirrels. They had wounded a squirrel and the Meier boy took another shot at the animal, but the bullet went astray and struck Delbert in the right breast, going through the lung.

He was rushed to the hospital at Marshfield, where he was operated on and the bullet removed from the back. At present he is getting along nicely and if no complications develop, his recovery seems certain.
