A Sad Accident.

n very sad accident occurred in Elk Neck,
on Friday of last week, which was too late
for notice III our last issue Mr.. Andrew
Gillinger one of the best known and most
highly respected residents of that section,
on the evening mentioned, went out with
some of the members of his family to gather
cheStnuts. He climbed the tree, and while
in the act of threshing OFF the nuts, holding
to limb with one hand and welding the
pole with the other, his hold gave way and
he fell from the top OF the tree, striking upon
his stomach on a large lower limb. He was
able to descend to the ground, and even at
tempted to walk to the house, but before he
reached it, his strength gave way, and he
had to be carried home. Fortunately the
distance was not great, and with the assist
ance of those with him he reached home
The doctor was at once summoned, and it
was found that his injury was of serious
nature, from which he was not likely to re-
cover. He died on Saturday evening, and
his remains We're, on Tuesday, taken to the
place of his former residence, in Montgom-
cry county, Pa. This sad event has cast a
gloom over the entire community, and much
sympathy is felt for his widow, who alone
survives him.

had finished him and left. He was picked
up sometime afterwards by neighbor and
driven to Elkton, where Dr. Mitchell en-
amined his wounds. The doctor said that
if the blow had been one inch back of where
it struck, it would have killed him. Jesse

Farmers are about through with seed

nothing of the Republicans present. In
