A vousg Lady Falls sevensy-Five Feet.
The Freshman Glass at Hanover College gave
picnic in grove between Hanover and West
Madison, Indiana, the past week, and late in
the afternoon Miss Kitty Aling, accompanied
by Charley Swope, wandered on among the
immense rocks in the hills for the purpose Of
gathering wild flowers and hunting curiosities.
Mr.. Swope was aware OF thei danger ems clifrs
close where they were, and repeatedly warmed
Miss z1ling 70 bc cautious where she stepped
but in an unguarded moment the young lady
thoughtlossly went ahead, until she plunged
over precipice, and fell a distance of seventy
five feet down perpendicular Line Of ragged
rocks, but fortunately missing them ALL landing
in pool Of mud, face foremost, where she laid
with fear. MIR. Swope. seeing the accident,
shouted to his associates, who were some yards
away, and as quick a. possible help arrived
at the side of the unfortunate young lady,
and she was pulled out Of the mud more
dead than alive but, strange to say, no bones
were broken. A physician was sent for, and
meantime large crowd Of the picnnickers had
arrived at the spot where the lady lay, but
before the physician arrived Miss Alling had
sufficiently recovered to satisfy everybody that
she was not dangerously hurt. Blood flowed
copiously from small cut in her head, but
that amounted to very little. Miss Aliing, the
heroine Of this remarkable accident, is of q
prominent family and well known In the
vicinity of her home.
