the M. E. church last Sunday evening was
very good. A good many of the little
children spoke and they all did well. The
singing was a good deal better than we
supposed it would be, after Mr.. Robinson
was hurt, so he could neither sing himself
nor drill the others.
Elder Myers preached in the Baptist
church last Sunday morning.
Elder Lilly will be ordained on Tuesday

A terrible accident occurred in this
town on Thursday afternoon by the burst
ing of a boiler In j. B. Robinson's saw
mill at about three o'clock George Rob
inson was instantly killed, being blown
up through the roof and came down on
the north side Of the pond. J. B. Robin
son was badly cut about the left eye and
his left leg is badly bruised, and one bone
is fractured Chris Fredericks who was
working with them was thrown out onto
the picket pile, breaking his left leg and
badly bruising one shoulder. They both
seem in fair way to recover. The en-
gine aRd boiler seem to be complete
wreck. Pieces of the mill, boiler and
engine are scattered all over the mill
yard. The explosion was heard by some
six miles away and others living near by
did not hear 1t. The explosion was prob
ably caused by weak places in the boiler,
where it had badly rusted. Vesper ser
vices were held at the home Of George
Robinson at sunset Friday evening. The
house and yard were full Of sympathizing
friends and neighbors who came to show
their love and respect to the young man
who had been taken so suddenly from
our midst without any warning. There
were large number Of relatives present
from Huron county, who came as soon as
they heard Of the accident. The remains
were taken to Fairfield, Auron county on
Saturday morning. The funeral was
held in the church at Fairfield at 2 p. M,
Saturday. The bereayed widow has
the heartfelt sympathy of this entire com
munily.
Mr.. Robinson was very industrious,
honest, upright young man and everybody
liked him. He was kind husband and
father and his wife is neatly heart.brok.
