ORRELL, WILLIAM BENJAMIN FRANKLIN
16 YEAR OLD BOY ACCIDENTLY KILLED
The many friends of the Orrell family who formerly lived in Payette, were grieved to learn of the accidental death of William Benjamin Franklin Orrell, the 16-year old son of Lafayette Orrell, (known as Baz Orrell), which occurred at Buhl, Idaho, on Sunday, October 23rd. The unfortunate young man came to his death while playing in an old shack, in company with his brother and another boy, a shotgun which was hanging on the wall was knocked down by the jar of the door as it was shut by one of the boys leaving the house, causing the discharge of the gun, the charge entering the boys neck. The body was brought to Payette Tuesday evening where the funeral was held from the Christian Church conducted by Rev. H. E. Mowe, on Wednesday afternoon. Young Orrell was a bright boy and a student of the High School at Buhl.
