Notes for HARRY EDWARD RINGHAND:

Sheboygan Press (Sheboygan, Wisconsin) > 1935 > December > 7

Eau Claire, Wis. -- Physicians today held little hope for the recovery of Harry Ringhand, 18, who shot himself accidentally while coon hunting.

The youth is the son of Mrs. Mary Ringhand, Augusta, a widow.

When he set the butt of his rifle on the ground it discharged, he said, the bullet shattering his jaw and emerging near his left eye. He was brought to a hospital here.
