 Edward S. Sites, resident at what IS known as the David Clark place on Kill ingly avenue, died Monday morning at i 2.15 at the Day Kimball hospital, where ! he was taken after being injured the i past week end when he fell out of l wagon in which he was riding on the state highway leading into this city from his home.
 The circumstances surrounding the happening are said to be such as to indi- cate the possibility that MT. Sites suf- fered a shock The horse he was driving was one that he purchased only recently and is known as a fine animal with no tendency toward doing the unusual and it's record always has been one of de- probability.
 Men who were working on the state highway out near what is known as the Old Killingly cemetery saw MT. Sites drive the horse up Into the driveway at the Willis place and soon after saw Mir Sites topple out of the team. The horse turned and went home, a mile down the highway.
 Soon after Mr. Sites was reached by those who went to his assistance pr. J. N. Perreault of Danielson came along in his car and was halted to give aid to MT. Sites, who was conscious and said to theS physician that he did not feel badly, although those who observed him are under the impression that he seemed daZed.
 Dr. Perreault caused the ambulance to be summoned and had MT. Sites remov- ed to the hospital He lapsed into un- | consciousness and remained that way l through practically all of the period up to his death.
 MT. Sites a man upwards of SO years
 of age, has been a resident in this terri ! tory for years and had been making his home at the David Clark place, Mrs.
 Clark being his sister.
