cleaning accidentally discharged.
According
to her husband, the full discharge of the shotgun struck Mrs. Carney, mangling her head.
Mr.
Carney, grief stricken, was
unable to give police or the coroner at Creston a full account of the accident.
A
neighbor, attracted to the house by the shot told police that Mr. Carney was unable to tell how it happened, excepting
that he was talking to his wife when the gun discharged, sending the charge
into Mrs. Carney's head.
When
he entered the house, the neighbor said, the gun was leaning against a chair.
Dr.
Orlo Coakley, who was summoned to the Carney home, pronounced death was caused
by an accidental gunshot wound and ordered the body removed to the Deitrick
funeral parlors.
According
to Dr. Coakley, the charge of shot struck Mrs. Carney in the left temple, causing instantaneous death.
Mr.
Carney, one of his neighbors
said, had returned from hunting a short time before the accident.

charter member of the local unit of the auxiliary to the American Legion, being
the first delegate from the Creston unit to a state convention, that at Sioux
