PEA RIFLE AGAIN.
Blenheim, Feb. 9.
Two boys named Walter Penny and Albert Kitching, both aged 15, were out rabbit shooting yesterday afternoon with pea rifles. Penny fired through a gorse bush at a rabbit, and the bullet struck Kitching in the abdomen, passing out at the side. Fortunately the bullet passed the vital organs, and the boy is likely to recover.
