A Miraculous Escape.

Leila johnson, the little three-year.
old daughter of Mr.. N. NJ. Johnson,
while playing with some other chill.
dren yesterday morning in the yard
of Mr.. C. r. Harvin, accidentally fell
into the well and would have drowned
had it not been for the quick assist
ance rendered. Itsppears from what
we could gather, that this child stood
upon box that was by the well curb:
and undertook to draw some water.
when it became o7erbalanced or was
dragged down by the weight of the
bucket. She fell distance of about
twenty-five feet and held on to the
bucket until a colored man went down
the we'll and brought her out.
