Mrs. Anna Price met with an alarming
and almost fatal accident on Monday
morning last. She had been getting eggs
at the barn, and while walking on the
wall of the approach, slipped and fell
head downward to the bottom of the
wall between it and the foundation of the
barn. The rain had caused the stones
to become slippery, and the fall was
quick and unexpected. She struck the
ground with her shoulders just at the
neck and her face was forced downward
upon her breast. Although severely in
jured she managed to extricate herself
and reach the house without help. The in
clination of her head forward probably
saved her life, as her skull might have
been crushed or her neck broken. Her
injuries are severe, but she does not co II
slider them dangerous, and hopes to be
well again in few days. Mrs. Price has
the sympathy of all her friends
