Fatal Accident The Valley "Indepen-
dent" says: A painful accident occurred at
the residence of Mr.. Christian Brenner, on
West Main street, in Mechanicsburg on
Saturday last, which resulted in the death
of his youngest child, an interesting boy
about one and a half years of age. A buck
ct of scalding water had been left standing
for moment at the front door to be used
for washing the steps, it is supposed the
little boy, in running through the hall, by
some means missed his footing and fell back
ward into the bucket and on being lifted
therefrom it was found that his body from
the middle down was fearfully scalded.
Medical aid was called and everything done
for the little sufferer that was possible, un.
til Monday when death ended its suffering.
