Aaron 5. White, former resident oil
Mount Holly, died on Saturday from in
juries received while out driving the day
before.
Mr.. White lived with his niece, Mrs.
Gertrude Scudder, near Lawrenceville.
On Friday afternoon he started for Prince
ton. He had a jaeger wagon in which
was cottage organ that was to be re-
paired. Mrs. Scudders little daughter
was in the vehicle, and Just as they
started the horse switched his tail and
struck the child in the face and tearing
her hat. Mr.. White called to the mother
to bring another hat. When she came
out she thought Mr.. White would have
his hands full watching the organ, so she
took the little girl out of the wagon.
Mr.. White went to Princeton and left
the organ at the factory and started for
home. When about % miles from Law
renceville something happened to cause
the fatal accident What it was is entire
ly surmise
Two ladies driving past saw a man
lying in the road. He was nearly uncon-
sclous and was covered with blood. A
bicycle rider who came along was hailed
He went to the nearest farm house and
secured assistance and then rode for a
doctor.
The man was lifted up and taken to the
farmers home. He was just able to re-
peat the words "White, Lawrenceville. /"
Knowing that man with that name lived
with Mrs. Scudder, she was at once noti-
fed and came and took her uncle home
MIR. White fingered until Saturday morn
ing. He became partially conscious but
did not reveal how he received his in
juries. His main thoughts seemed to be
for the little girl and he expressed great
satisfaction that she remained at home.
The horse Mr.. White droye was found
in the yard Of farm house near where
the accident happened. The animal did
not run away, but walked quietly into
the yard. The shaft and one of the wae-
on were broken. 1t is thought that one
of the shaft bolts fell out, letting the
shaft fall, the jerk throwing Mr.. White
under the horses feet. His ear was near
ly cut of, the ribs on one side were
crushed In and there were other bad
bruises
Mr.. White was 20 years of age For a
long time he kept the drug store now
owned by Elmer D. Prickitt. Mrs. Scud-
der lived with him, and when she mar
ried and removed to Lawrenceville, she
induced her uncle to give up business,
and, with his wife, make their home with
har

Slck-poison is poison which makes
you sick. 1t comes from the stomach.
The stomach makes it out OF undigested
food.
The blood gets it and taints the whole
body with it. That's the way of it.
The way to be rid of it is to look after
your digestion.
If your food is all properly digested,
there will be none left in the stomach to
make sick-poison out Of
If your stomach is too weak to see to
this properly by itself help it along with
few doses of Shaker Digestive Cordial.
That's the cure of it.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is a delicious

Disastrous Fire at Imlaystown.

4
The ringing of the fire bells on SUNDAY
morning, was in response to Telegram
asking aid from the Mount Holly fire de
partment to assist in subduing fire thai
threatened to destroy the village of I'm
laystown. The firemen did not 90. how
ever, as the dispatch was received toe
late to be of any service.
The village of Imlaystown, which is on
the Pemberton and Hightstown Railroad
was nearly wiped out by the fire, which
was of an incendiary origin. The large
hotel of John Hendrickson, the big grist
mill of Reuben Hendrickson, and the dry
goods and grocery stores and dwelling
houses of David Waldings and BARLEY
Maulsbury, together with several smaller
buildings, were totally destroyed. The
furniture and contents of all, with the ex.
ception of the hotel, were also consumed
Very little of the hotel furniture was
saved. Maulsbury's store was also the
hamlet's postoffice.
The fire started at o'clock, in the sec
ond-story of Walding's store. The first
the family knew of the fire was by being
awakened by terrible explosion of kep
of gun-powder in the store They barely
escaped with their lives. The flames
spread rapidly to the adjoining buildings,
which were soon consumed. The villa
gers formed bucket brigade and fought
hard tosubdue the fire, but their efforts
were not of much avail.
The fend who started the fire placed a
ladder to the second story window OF
Waldlng's store to accomplish his work.
His identity is unknown.
The total loss is about $40, 900. Most Of
the properties are said to be insured. The
individual losses are as follows G. F.
Walding, store $4,000; house, $4,000; R.
6. Hendrickson, $4,000; Maulsbury's
store, 81 900; John Hendrickson, $4,000.
