FAIR HAVEN.
A Fatal Aec1dent-Onee of Fair Raven's Oldest and Best Known Citizens Killed hv a Eall i'm n RRPn.

A Fatal Aecident-One of Fair Raven's Oldest and Best Known Citizens Killed by a Fall in a Barn. A sad accident takes another of Fair Ha- ven's old citizens away, the victim being John Turner, better known as "Uncle John." The deceased was about eighty years old and for the past few years has been quite feeble, al. though able to be about and attend to some matters of business. The residents of South Front street were greatly shocked yesterday morning as news spread through the street that Uncle John had met with az accident deceased went to the barn about half-past ten to feed the horse while his son Horace was busy in the oyster shop near by. Going aloft to throw some hay down, by some strange fatality he fell through the opening in the floor and died almost instantly, and it is thought the shock killed him, as he was not badly bruised, only one wrist showing evidence of the fall. On hearing the noise caused by the fall his son rushed into the barn and found his father lying on the floor in an unconscious state. He immediately assisted his brother to as comfortable posis tion possible and started for the doctor, stopping at Mir. Dan Smiths grocery store and giving the alarm. Those present hasten ed to render what assistance was possible, but arrived only in time to see Uncle John breathe his last. The deceased was a native of Virginia, but came to Fair Haven about SlACy years ago, where ne mas since uV6Q. About fifty years ago he built his late resi- dence just north of Stevens coal yard, South Front street. He was one of the pioneers in the oyster business, having been engaged in it for upwards of fifty years. The deceased leaves wife and four children to mourn his loss. One son, Horace, lives in North Haven, one, John R., in Fair Haven, and one. Andrew, in Baltimore, Md. Andrew is .. member of the we'll known firm of J. s. Farren & Co. of that city. The only daughter of deceased is Mrs. Per kins of Springfield, Mass. Deceased was one of the first members of the East Pearl street M. E. church.
