South Royalton Train Victim
Dies

Ernest Hewitt, eldest child of Mr..
and Mrs. Ernest Hewitt of South
Royalton, was struck by Central
freight train near the station Wednes-
day afternoon and was so badly hurt
that the doctors give little hope of
his recovery. There were two freight
trains moving at the time, and the
boy got by the first of them, which
was north-bound, all right; but the
other, south-bound, was moving so
rapidly that he was struck.
The boy was thrown down an en-
bankment about fifteen feet. He
was unconscious, and it is thought
that the skull is fractured. He was
also considerably cut about the
head. He is six years old and was
on his way to school at the time of
the accident. Mr.. and Mrs Hewitt
have two other children.
The boy died at 4 o'clock Wednes-
day afternoon.

Many Hunters Killed

The hunting season in upper
Michigan and Wisconsin this year
has been the most fatal to hunters
except 1907. So far % have been
killed and 81 injured. There are
still few days of the season and
more fatalities are expected.
OF the total of 20 dead nine were
killed when bird limiting before the
deer season began. Most of the
others we're mistaken for deer by
other hunters.
In 1907 81 were killed, but the
majority of these were shot when
duck hunting.
