fourteen feet, striking on her head and

walked unaided into the house appar-

who witnessed the fall from the rear
porch Of the house, was unable to reach
her before she entered the house, so
quickly did she arise. The fall awak-
ened her, but she had no recollection
OF anything until she found herself
lying on the ground. A physician was
called and made an examination but
could find neither broken bones, bruises
or any other of the usual results Of
such q fall. Except for slight pain
An the back the little girl has since
made no complaint of feeling unwell,
