Goldsboro, N.C., Jan. 26—A supposedly empty shotgun in the hands of the 6-year-old son of Mrs. Anderson Gurley, widow tenant on a farm in the Oakland community 10 miles west of here, was accidentally discharged while the lad was playing with several other children this afternoon, resulting in the death of a small daughter of Tom Radford, a farmer of the community, and the loss of three fingers by Herman Gurley, brother of the small boy who had possession of the firearm.
