A FATAL FALL.
A Baby Falls From a Third story
Window and Dies In Less Than Two
Hours of a Fractured skull.

Baby Falls From a Third story
Window and Dies in Less Than Two
Hours of Fractured skull.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Lawton, who
lives at No. 26 Oak street, took her year and
a half old boy baby and went to visit friend
of hers who lives at the upper end of State
street, nearly opposite Forsyth's laundry.
Mrss Lawton and her baby were in the front
room on the third story of the house and the
baby was allowed to play on the floor while
Mrs Lawton and her friend entered into con-
versation. Their talk grew SO interesting
that the mother did not think of her babe,
and when suddenly she came to look for it
the boy was nowhere to be seen. The moth
er, thinking it had crawled out into the hall
way, thought nothing more of it until, hap
pening to look out of the window, she saw
the child lying on its face on the sidewalk
below She fastened down stairs, thinking
the child had crawled down the stairs and
going out to play had fallen down. When
she came to pick up the child it was covered
with blood A lady living down
stairs then told the mother that
the babe must have fallen from
the window above to where it lay. Mrs.
Lawton washed the blood off the uncon-
scious child and afterwards took it home,
where it died in less than hour after
wards Medical Examiner White was called
and after an investigation stated that the
child died of fractured SKULL caused by an
accidental fall from the window. After Mrs.
Lawton had set the child on the floor it had
crawled to the window, which was very near
the floor, and getting on the sill had fallen
out.
