A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

On June MT and Mrs Walter F.
 Dains of White Hills were visiting in Oxford and went with party of friends boating on Long Meadow Pond. They had to cross the dam to hire a boat. When returning to the wagon Mrs Dains slipped on the wet log that caps the overflow space and fell to the rocks below, landing heavily on her head and shoulders. She was taken to Seymour, but no doctor could be found; then to Derby to Dr Sharpe. He was not home. Mrs Sharpe called up five other doc tors on the telephone, but none were in. She was then taken to the home of Arthur w. Crowther, her nephew, in Shelton, where Dr F. J. Nettleton dressed her wounds. She suffered severe scalp wound which it took seven stitches to close, contusions of the shoulders and other bruises, but no bones were broken. That she may soon be we'll is the hope of her many friends. Long Meadow pond is an ideal spot to spend the afternoon if that dangerous crossing place could be improved.
