Alvie Hensley Accidentally Killed
Alvie Hensley of the London community was shot and killed by his twelve year old son while out driving Saturday. They spied a rabbit near the road and the father told the boy to kill it. In some way while loading the gun it went off and the charge passed thru the back of the front seat and tore a gaping wound in his fathers side. Mr. Hensley was immediately rushed to Brady for treatment but could not recover. The remains were brought back to London for burial which was held Monday. He leaves a wife and seven children the oldest of which is twelve.
