Serious Accident.

On last Sunday morning Bird
Buskirk and Eddie Butcher start
ed for Denison University, and
were accompanied some five miles
by Mr.. F. Nj. Chain and John Y.
Buskirk, the father of Bird, when
at the Altizer branch the carriage
in which they were driving was
being turned around when one OF
the wheels hung under the body
and -turned-the vehicle over,
throwing Mr.. John Y. Buskirk to
the ground and=the carriage run
ming over him several times mash
ing him up severely. His left
arm is broken in two places and
his wrist dislocated; his head is
fearfully cut and other injuries
are found on his body. He was
brought to Mr.. j. r. Henderson's
on Sunday and brought home on
a boat Monday evening. MIR. Bus
kirk is 81 years of age, and has
been quite frail for several years.
He lost his right arm some forty
years ago, and now that his left
arm is broken he is perfectly help
less. While the chances seem to
be. against him on account of his
health and the fearful injuries he
has sustained, he is still resting
well, and through his indomnlt-
able grit we believe that he will
recover. Drs. G. L. Hudgins and
Ii. II. Bryan attended him at
once, and as DR.. Hudgins left for
his new home at Portsmouth, o.,
Tuesday morning, DR.. Bryan has
the case in charge. None of the
other parties were injured. The
