SHOT WITH OWN GUN
John J. Mulvihill of Cabinet Killed While on Bear Hunt.
IS FOUND FATALLY WOUNDED.
Hunting Companions and Brother Try to Get Him to Aid but Death Overtakes Him on Way Out.
While on a hunting trip Sunday with two companions, John J. Mulvihill, a well-known and respected citizen of the Cabinet country, in the east end of the county, was fatally injured by a bullet from his 30-30 Winchester rifle.
The accident happened about 1:30 in the afternoon and Mulvihill bled to death from loss of blood from the arteries of the left wrist, death occurring about 6 o’clock in the evening. The victim of the accident was accompanied by two other hunters, Thomas Dolan and a neighbor by the name of Hyatt. The men had separated for the purpose of hunting and Dolan heard a muffled discharge of a gun and Mulvihill feebly call Tom.". When Dolan got to the injured man he was unable to speak. From the position of the body it was evident that Mulvihill had been standing when his piece was accidentally discharged, the bullet shattering the wrist, entering the left side at the breast, slightly piercing the lung and making a flesh wound in the chin.
One of the men took the horse they had with them and rode to Mulvihill’s brother’s place, a distance of eight miles, and the injured man was still alive when his brother arrived. While going out to the trail, however, Mulivhill gasped twice and expired. On arrival at the Mulvihill home and as the clothing was being removed it was thought that a slight muscular movement was detected and with a last hope that possibly the man might be chilled and in a faint from loss of blood Dr. Peak was informed at Thompson Falls of the accident and upon arrival of a train from the east Sunday evening the body was placed in the baggage car on a stretcher. The physician stated that Mulvihill had been dead some little while. The body was brought on here and turned over to the Brower undertaking parlors.
The dead man was 49 years of age and a native of Door county, Wisconsin. He leaves four brothers and a sister. He and his brother Michael, with whom he resided, were burned out in August in the forest fires which did so much damage in the Cabinet country. The dead man was burned out completely, as was his brother, and when arrangements were made to rebuild John went to the residence of Michael Mulvihill for the winter. He was a widower, his wife dying about 17 years ago after their being married but a short time. The remains were shipped Wednesday night to Sturgeon Bay, Wis., for burial and were accompanied on the journey by Michael Mulvihill. Catholic services were held at the chapel of the undertaking room Wednesday afternoon and a large number of Cabinet people were here.
Mulvihill was well known as a good shot and a careful hunter. He came to the Cabinet country nine years ago and was highly thought of by his friends and neighbors.
