The East Middlcbury Accident.
Mn. EplTOR.

Mr.. EpiToR:
In your last issue your iipton cores
ponhent gave very incorrect account
of the way Miss Ada Bean was hurt.
lie said that when | had nearly reacl-
ed the water bar some one told me to
drive fast, &c. did not hear anyone
speak TO me, and did not apply the
whip, for bad none with me, neither
did | set In the girls lap but sat on the
scat between the two ladies'. How far
the sleigh went before 1t struck the
ground | cannot say, but think not
more than six or eight feet. The girl
was thrown from sled while coasting
the day before and told her mother she
was not well before she left home that
night. She also told two persons after
she reached East Middlebury that che
was not feeling well when she left home.
| do not wish to exonerate myself
from the blame that should bear, but
when | am accused of premcditated
homicide wish to inform the readers
of you paper that am not guilty, but
that your correspondent is guilty Of
grossly misrepreseDting facts.
