It was probably a warm summer's day in August, 1920. Two young boys playing in the cool space under a house. Harvey Hibbard and his friend were doing what little boys do, playing coyboys and indians. Unfortunately, the gun was loaded and little Harvey was shot.
Unfortunate because it was a childs game we would now see as abhorant, and unfortunate because the .38 Harvey took from his home did have a bullet in it. A bullet that went through his chest below the right lung. Harvey was taken to St. Vincent's Hospital where he died from the bullet wound at 8 pm. Another flower in the garden of tears.
