LOST HIS LEG AND HIS LIFE.

Edmund Rano. Il Brandon boy about
;l3 years old, with three companions. got
into freight Car on the afternoon freight
Monday and started for Mddlebury to
see the fire. The train, as usual, Stacked
up at Clippers crossing" about mile
south of the village, and the boys
thought it would be Il good time to Jump
off. Rano jumped and in some way turn
ed over ia such Il manner that lIe was
twisted around and his left leg was run
over. Conductor Thomas jumped of and
the train came on to Md1leburv. As
soon as possible DR.. +. +. Russell was
found aud was taken back on the engine
to the scene of the accident. There it
was found that the conductor had ban
daged up the leg in all unusually >killful
manner for an amateur. so the boy was
got on the rnginr and brought to the de-
pot here. An examination showed that
the outer calf of the left leg had been
cut of to the bone, some of the smaller
bones We're broken. the ankle was crush
ed and the foot cut nearly of, only thu
skin and a little of the flesh remaining.
DR.. Russell thought best to get the boy
home before alnputating the limb, and
shortly after reaching here he was put
on the t 80 train, DR.. Russell accompany
ing him to Brandon.his parents having al
ready been telegraphed to by the doctor.
At Brandon Drs. Tobias and Preston
consulted with DR.. Russell, and it was
decided to perform the amputatiOn at
O'Clock. The boy had kept up with
great spirit and talked necessarily to the
doctors and his family until about ten
minutes before the time set for the opcr-
alton. when he gave Il sudden gasp and
was dead. The leg had been so well
bandaged and the hcmo"rhage so well
stopped that probably not over pint of
blood was lost in all. The doctors at
tribute the death to the shock and result
ing excitement. They were unable to
get the boy to take much of anything to
quiet him. and he talked briSkly and
voubly up to within five minutes before
his death, protesting stoutly against hav
ing his leg cut of and being compelled
to go through life cripple.
