 The accident Wednesday by which the Myers boy in Harriet street, lost leg while coasting in consequence of colliding with a trolley car, serves to call attention to some dangerous places in Fair Haven. For many years the East Grand avenue hill has been a favorite place for coasting and the l sIeds run down to the trolley tracks. There has been no good coasting there this year, but when there is good sliding, there will be a temptation to slide down along the car tracks. Be- fore cars ran so frequently, there was not much danger. but it is now consid- cred very dangerous to coast down that hill.
