Also found from: http://www.dalesgenealogy.com/ the extract below:
September 17, 1877 Northern Echo - Serious Gun Accident in Swaledale.
Mr John KENDALL of Fremington House, Reeth, went out for the purpose of shooting rabbits one evening during the past week; a little lad accompanied him. Mr Kendall shot at a rabbit and killed it, and unthinkingly laid down his gun, which was double barrelled, until he picked the rabbit up. The young lad picked the gun up and was amusing himself with it, and as Mr Kendall was returning with the rabbit the gun exploded and shot the gentleman, the contents passing through his leg just below the knee. He now lies in a precarious state. (A report Jan 1878 reported John Kendall died 23 Jan, and the little boy was Wm. Ernest PLACE) [Was he also a John Thomas Kendall i.e. JTK?]
