Karyn goes to school

Associated Press · December 10, 1971

Seven-year-old Karyn Prestwich went to school for the first time in 2 1/2 months this week, boarding a bus at the same spot where she was critically wounded more than a year ago by a hunter who mistook her for a deer. Since that incident she has felt misfortune with a broken leg and a broken arm and medical bills which ran more than $12,000. On the school playground Tuesday, caution was the byword. In the classroom, school mates were happy to have her back.
