Notes:

Historic Building:
Although set on a narrow lot, the generous setback lends an air of graciousness to this front-gabled, one and half storied house in buff brick. It was built in 1894 by David Cole, co-owner of the former Watson Woollen Mill. Attractive features are the bay window with bracketed roof and the small entrace porch. Here, turned wooden posts support a hipped roof which shelters the transomed entrance. The original door is present, with two, narrow roudn-arched panes.<sup>1a

FATAL BICYCLE ACCIDENT

A sad accident, with fatal results, occurred near Oregon (Perine's Mills), in Waterloo, on Saturday afternoon last. Two young men from Galt, Edward Cole, employed in MacGregor, Gourlay & Co.'s Works, and Edward Bullock, employed in Mr. Sherman's tailoring establishment, took advantage of the half-holiday to walk up to their homes that afternoon, their parents residing in the neighborhood. After getting there, as they owned bicycles each they took them out and started for a ride. The roads were rough and they made slow progress until getting over the worst and were about entering on a smoother part where they expected to be able to increase their speed. At this time they were riding one behind the other, young Cole being in advance ten or twelve feet of Bullock. Just as they entered on the smoother road, young Cole suddenly pitched forward over the front of his bicycle on to the road, and in order to avoid running into him, young Bullock threw himself off his, alighting without injury. Cole immediately got up and did not for a short time complain of injury, but in a very few minutes did complain of a very severe pain in his bowels. Neither of the two thought much of it, and Bullock said to Cole that he would ride on and as soon as the latter felt better he was to follow. Bullock rode on for a short time and not seeing Cole coming turned back, but did not catch up to him until the latter was nearly home. At this time he was still complaining of pain, and on getting home, as it was seen that he was injured, medical assistance was obtained. Sabbath he passed more comfortably and was thought to be getting better, but that night a change for the worse occurred and after severe suffering he died on Tuesday morning.

The deceased was the son of Mr. David Cole, of the Woolen Mills about Oregon, was a very worthy, industrious young man, and the blow to his parents is a most severe one.

Young Bullock says, that at the time of the accident they were not going faster than a person could walk; that Cole's bicycle did not strike a stone or other obstruction, but that, so far as he could see, his companion's foot appeared to slip off the treadle and got into the wheel, thus stopping his machine suddenly, and pitching him forward over the handle.
