Accidentally shot.

--James Gorman, a member of Walker's battalion, encamped on the eminence west of the Friend's Meeting-house, accidentally shot himself through the shoulder on Wednesday night, producing a very painful wound. He was in the act of leaning his musket against a wagon when the trigger came in contact with something that caused it to fall and explode the cap.
