DESTROYS BROTHERS, SIGHT
Two Year Old Argos Child Thrusts
Fork Into Eye Of
Infant.

The following account of deplor-
able accident, at Argos, in which a
two year old child, in an angry fit.
thrust fork into the eye of his
infant brother, resulting in the loss
of the eye, is told in the Argos Re-
| fector.
Monday morning, Oct, "a, OFT, the
little two-year-old son of David Bur
roughs seemingly peeved because his
father had not waited at the break
fast table till he, too, had finished.
thrust his fork from him aimlessly
IN his childlike effort to emphasize
his disapproval of his fathers un-
Willingness to wait. A cruel
chance directed that fork peint for.
ward into the eye of little four
months-old Clifford zeposing in his
mothers lap. Two of the points
struck mercilessly into the sight of
his right eye. To the parents, the
injury did not seem to be serious un-
till Wednesday morning, when DR..
Sarber was called. He appraised the
parents OF the serious condition of
the eye and advised them to take the
babe to Rochester that afternoon 10
DIR. Eikenbury who had office hours
there that day. This yas done. The
specialist is very busy man but he
gave the babe the closest possible al
tention coming to the Burroughs home
and staying at night at great person
al sacrifice. The inflammation that set
up, however, would not yield to his
heroic treatment and Saturday night
1t became evident that the little suff-
erer must lose a "window Of the
soul''. Early Sunday morning DIR.
Sarber was called and assisted the
specialist In the removal of the effect
ed organ. During the process of re-
moval the coating of the eye gave
way at the affected part. and the ac-
cumulated matter that issued forth
told too well the story of the true
nature of the injury and of the suffer
ing that the little one must have en-
dured.
The whole distressing story is al
most to -regretable to recount, and
the sympathy of the entire community
goes into this home.
The child is gradually improving
and the removed member will be. re-
placed by one of glass in the near
future
