TRAGIC STORY OF ACCIDENT.
AIR COMMODORE'S SON AND GUNPOWDER GAME.
In simple words a little girl, daughter of Air Commodore lan M. Bonham-Carter told the tragic story of her elder brother's fatal accident.
The boy, Peter Richard, aged 17, was badly injured whilst ex- perimenting with gunpowder in a coppice near the R.A.F. camp at Halton (Bucks), which his father commands.
At the inquest, the girl, Mary Ruth, who was the only witness of the accident, said:
"I was playing with my brother Peter, who was trying to make a sort of cannon that would go of with a bang. We were by tha side of the tree..
"Peter lit something in the end of one of the pieces of piping, and there was a bang. I next saw him
on the ground.
"It was the first time we had played at the game."
Other evidence, showed that after the accident there was found, on the trunk of the tree, a piece of iron piping, bound with elastic and nailed down..
One end of the piping had been welded over and a hole impressed on the top. A smaller piece of piping, with one side burst open, and a packet of gunpowder, were found near the tree.
Mrs. Bonham-Carter said her son had told her that he and his sister were going to have a game. He tried to buy something at Tring, but failed. He got some- thing in Aylesbury, however, but she did not know it was gunpow- der he wanted..
Verdict, death by misadventure.
