Plain Nurse Gregory, they called
her at the hospital, and, for the mat

y of those women whose beauty is in
the soul. If her features were pleas

radiated from her. She had never had

drilled into her from childhood. And.
now-now for the first time she felt
deprived Of her birthright.

The days passed. The man on the

mality of raising the bandage to be
gone through. Then, on Tuesday
morning, he would know his fate in
a moment. And neither the nurses
nor the doctors could prophesy what
would be the outcome of that mo-

Sixteen Year. Old George Wagner of
Brandon Falls Under Wheels
of Loaded Wagon.

George Wagner the 16-year-old son
of Joseph Wagner of Brandon town.
ship, was instantly killed Saturday
afternoon while hauling cordwood to
Brandon, says the Alexandria Post
News. It seems that Mr.. Wagner and
his son were hauling wood with two
teams. The sons load was piled in =
wagon box and while driving the lad
sat on the front end OF the load. The
team which the boy drove was in the
rear Of that driven by his father. In
some maner the boy was thrown from
the wagon while going down q hill
between the farm home and the vii
lage. The front wheel of the wagon
passed over his chest, killing him in
stantly. The boy was dead when his
father reached him. The team be-
came frightened, whether before the
boy fell or after seems difficult to tell,
the accident being over so quickly. The
rear team struck the load driven by
the elder Wagner, one horse passing
outside the rear wheel and the other
animal inside. The latter broke q leg
and was shot.
Mrs. Wagner and her daughters
were on their way to Brandon to at
tend the funeral of the late Chr. Pet
erson, Which occurred Saturday af-
ternoon. They came upon Mr.. Wag-
ner shortly after the accident occurred.
The Wagner families are old resi-
dents of Millerville and Brandon
townships, and the accident has cast a
gloom over the entire section Of the
county.
