A Sad Accident.

A particularly sad accident occurred
at Kearneysville last Sunday morn
lug. Mrs. Henry Bogert and her two
little sons came down from Martins
burg on the six o'clock train to spend
the day with relatives in that vicinity.
They stepped from the train to the
platform on the south side of the
tracks, and one of the boys, about
six years of age, ran across the tracks
to the opposite side. His mother saw
a freight train approaching rapidly
from the east and waited until it
should pass. The little fellow, seeing
the train about to come between him
and his mother, started to recross the
tracks to her, when the freight engine
struck him and threw him fully thirty
feet. His horror-stricken mother saw
his dreadful death, but was utterly
powerless to help him. The child was
instantly killed-was dead when he
was lifted from the place where he
had been thrown. The remains were
taken back to Martinsburg on the
eight o'clock train.
