Read More	Big Timber Pioneer, November 10, 1932 Sweet Grass county had its second hunting fatality of the season on Saturday afternoon when Orville Briner was the victim of a bullet fired by Ora Ostenson at what he supposed was a deer. The two boys were hunting on Porcupine butte near Melville and had separated to track their game. The Briner boy switched his course from the two had at first mapped out, and when the other youth saw a movement in the bushes he fired the bullet striking his friend in the back. Doing what he could for the injured lad, Ostenson hurried out for help, but Briner was dead when he and Stanley Lavold returned to the scene. The body was brought to Timber that evening and prepared for burial. Burial was in Mountian View by the side of the mother. Deceased was 21 years of age, a native of Peru, Ind., and for the past three years had been employed by ranchers of Melville where he was well-liked by all who knew him. His father, William Briner, arrived Tuesday from Peru to attend the funeral. A brother, Billy, and sister, Mrs. Clarence McMahon, both of Melville, also survive. He was a nephew of Mrs. A. T. Ellison and Sheriff Ed Brannin, and grandson of Mrs. A. Briner of this city. The Ostenson boy in pitiable condition from shock and grief, is being watched carefully that he may do no harm to himself.
