SEVEN YEAR OLD GIRL
 KILLED BY AUTOMOBILE
Evelyn Paulson of Ash Street Hit By M. Henry Donnel-
 ly's Car Near Her Home.

Evelyn PaulsOn, the seven-year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs Emil Paulson, of 66 Ash street, was killed in an unfortunate accident shortly after 10 o'clock this morning, when she was struck by an automobile driven by M. Henry Donnelly, of 21 Lincoln street. The accident occur red at the corner of South Main and Ash street The child was taken to the New Britain hospital, and accord ing to officials of the institution she was dead on arrival there.
 According to MT. Donnelly's state ment, he was driving in a southerly direction on South Main street and when near Ash street, the little girl started to run across the street from the east to the west side. As she neared the opposite corner, she re- traced her steps and ran directly into the machine, hitting the front fend- CT. MT. Donnelly stopped his car and the girl was carried into a nearby store where treatment was given and the police were notified.
 Officer Herbert c. Lyon and Inspec- tor Edward l.. Stebbins of the au- tomobile departm went to the scene. The child was at once taken to the hospital. She had sustained a fracture of the skull, and the face and head were badly battered. MT. Donnelly reported that he was driv- ing very slowly at the time, and this is substantiated by a boy witness who told MT. Stebbins that tne Donnelly car was not travelling very fast.
 The deaG child was a pupil at the Northend school and was a general favorite. Her father was al the po- lice station a few minutes after the death of the girl and he was distract ed. Besides her parents, a brother and sister survive the child,
 Dr. Roger M. Griswold, acting medical examiner, made an inveSti gation. From what he learned from three witnesses, Frances Skelly, Mrs. A. E. Sundberg and Nicholas Stifeck, the accident was unavoidable. pr. GrisWOld stated to reporters this aft ernoon that the fracture of the skull may have been caused by the child S head striking the pavement. Donnel- ly's statement that he was driving slowly is borne out in the fact that the machine was stopped about a cars length from where the child was picked up.
