the &. a. D. Tracks.

William Daniel Barley a 12-year-old
colored boy, residing with his mother on
Peasants street. Maddox Hill, met with
distressing accident yesterday after

The boy was playing on the Chesapeake

his right foot and right arm, and MASKING
the foot into pulp entirely severed the
arm below the elbow.
The ambulance was summoned and the
lad was removed To the almshouse, where
Drs. Baughman and Nuckols performed
an operation on him. He stood the or

nicely, with a fair chance for recovery.
