To Small Boy and Mrs. Arthur Jenkins, who liv- ed on the farm of Mr. Stanton Glaize near Meadow Mills, met with a fatal accident a few days ago. The boy was riding the off mule attach- ed to a wagon and team belonging to Messrs. Stickley & Orndorff, when he either fell or slipped off, and one of the wheels of the wagon, loaded with a cord and a half of wood, pass- ed over his abdomen. The wagon was going down hill at the time. With the Jenkins boy at the time was his brother, Willie. The in- jured lad, though in great pain, walked to his home nearby. Dr. Weaver was immediately summoned from Middletown, and an examina- tion showed him that there was no hope for the little sufferer. He pass- ed away at 2 o'clock in the morning. He was a bright boy and the sec- ond child, and was about 6 years old. |
