Monday afternoon, John Dodge, "A stran
ger who has been staying at the Red Lion
Inn for two or three weeks, was bicycling
down the Main street hill leading to the
bridge, out OF which teams were coming,
and several children were playing in front
OF the houses on the right hand side OF
the road. In trying to avoid the teams, |
the young man rode toward the children
and his wheel struck the three yeaT-old |
daughter of Ed. Davis on the right tenn |
pie, cutting a cash over an inch long. /
Very soon after the accident happened,
body writ was served on Dodge, and a
declaration of damages to the amount of
g 1000 was made. The young man sent
for his father, who arrived from Lowell, |
Mass, on the early morning train Tues
day, and it was decided to settle the mat
ter by arbitration Hon. VIM. H. Dubois, |
W. B. Wall and S. NJ. Flint being chosen
to investigate the case and to fix the dam
ages; but the amount upon which they
settled has not yet been made public. The
child seems to be recovering from its in
iurv, and the accident has a less serious
aspect than when it first happened.
