feet Attendance-LocaIs.
Marcus, the youngest son of Rev.
and Mrs. George Smith was struck
by an automobile driven by Harry
Day of st. Johnsbury, last Wednes-
day afternoon. Several children
were playing with hose on the lawn
in front of the residence of o. w.
Baker, so intent in their play they
did not see the auto and Marcus ran
into the street directly in front of it.
Mr.. Day applied the brakes and did
all in his power to prevent striking
the child but he was knocked down
and received severe cuts and bruises
on the head and face, but is now con-
sidered out of danger. Automobiles
have been passing through our viii
lage at a rate far exceeding the speed
limit, and had this been the case
with this car it would have meant
more serious accident, and it is
hoped this will be a warning.
