      Fatal Accident.

      On the 2nd of July, in Wellesley township, Waterloo county, Ontario, John C. Bricker's teams were engaged in hauling brick, and as they passed the house, a little boy climbed on the hindmost wagon. A little girl aged 4 years, 10 months and 3 days followed and fell under the wheel, which passed over her head. She arose and stood up again, but died in a few minutes. She was buried on the 4th at Martin's burying-ground. A. B. Martin and Moses Erb preached discourses appropriate to the occasion.
