Death by golf and peacocks

Oct 1951: Edward Harrison died in a freak golf accident, by managing to stab himself in the leg with a broken club. As he lay bleeding to death, he screamed for help. "Two other golfers said they twice heard screams, but thought they were the cries of peacocks from a peacock farm."

Clearly a Darwin Award candidate, but they don't go back that far.

That's what happens when you refuse the caddie and insist on playing golf alone.
