MRS D. 5. EDWARDS FATALLY HURT.
 Tuesday, while Mrs D. 5. Edwards of Chestnut Hill, accompanied by her granddaughter, Miss Hattie Waller, was driving through Pork lane, a distressing accident occurred, by which Mrs Ed wards was fatally hurt and Miss Waller and D. c. Beach injured. Mir Beach, who had been after load of wood, was driv- ing down the hill with team of horses and heavy wagon, when the ring on the neck yoke broke, allowing the pole to drop and rendering the horses frantic and unmanageable. Escaping MT Beach's control, they dashed down the hill, throwing him out, running over his arm and badly bruising him. Although the ladies saw the runaWays approaching, row road, to turn out or avoid them and the heavy wagon crashed with terrific force into the back wheel of the buggy, so forcibly as to clear the horse, drag ging Miss Waller over the dashboard, but, fortunately, without serious injury. Mrs Edwards was thrown directly upon a pile of stones and her head and face torn and crushed ill a fearful manner. Mir Beach went to her, got water and made her as comfortable as he could. went home and sent Mr and Mrs Hurd. Sidney Potter and Mir Burton with bran dy and other things to make her more comfortable. They were about the first to reach the place. He then sent his son Fred for the doctor. Mrs Edwards was rendered unconscious by the shock and was, as quickly as possible, taken to the home of Henry Wills, near by. Dr Hill and Rev Mir Boylston were hastily sum. moned, but nothing could be done. AL though she breathed quietly, she lay ir a comatose condition and concussion ol the brain was feared. She remained thus for some time, though her deatl
