LEG BROKEN.-Between three and
four o'clock Sunday afternoon, Mrs.
Henry Veon and her daughter, Mrs.
Knapp, who reside in the Redbrush
district, about three miles northwest
of this village, went out for a short
ride with Mrs. HOskins, of Palmyra,
who was visiting them. They had
gone but about three quarters of mile
when their horse became unmanaga-
ble and upset the buggy, throwing the
three ladies out violently upon the
ground Mrs. Hoskins and Mrs. Knapp
were considerably bruised, but their
injuries are not regarded of very Sc
rious nature. Mrs. Veon did not make
so fortunate an escape. She sustained
a compound fracture of the right leg
just above the ankle joint, the bones
being shivered in frightful manner.
Surgical aid was called as soon as pos
sible, and it was decided that the am
putation of the limb midway between
the ancle and the knee was necessary,
and the operation was performed by
Drs. Alcorn and Leonard between ten
and twelve o'clock the same night.
Her injuries are of a very serious char
acter, but hopes are entertained that
she will finally recover.

delightful month of the year in which
to view the great st. Lawrence in all

doubt had this fact in view when they
set the Excursion for that date. Our
recollection of the River, and the in

have not been so fortunate we say,
Is Stand not upon the order of going,
but go, &C."

more or less after meal he is dys-
peptic, it shows his stomach isnot able
to dispose of what he has eaten, but to
