horses to carriage, in which were his
three daughters. AS he was passing
along Garaschee's lane on the South
side, the youngest named Maggie,
about three years of age fell out. Mr..

til he heard an older daughter scream,
and Just turned his head in time TO pre-.
vent her jumping out after her sister.
The team was stopped, and the little
girl picked up when it was found that
although not seriously injured, her
head and face are badly bruised. As
she fell out of the side of the carriage
it seems almost miracle, that she es-
capped being run over by the hindwheel.
