A most r e m a r k a b l e and w h a t
seemed an almost miraculous escape f r o m a serious accident
h a p p e n e d a few d a y s a g o to the
little ten-year-old d a u g h t e r of
J a m e s S e a v e r of C l a y b a n k s . Mr.
S e a v e r was coming in town with
a p a r t i a l load of wheat and when
near town the wagon suddenly
jolted by an obstruction in the
road and a s t h e little girl was
sitting in a s p r i n g s e a t beside
her f a t h e r , t h e sudden rebound
of the s p r i n g t h r e w her f r o m
t h e seat aud s h e fell u n d e r the
left f o r e wheel which passed over her and s t r a n g e to say s h e
made no complaint or seemed to
suffer a n y pains. H e r f a t h e r
immediately took h e r to a
physician who upon a t h o r o u g h
examination found no evidences
of any injury o t h e r than a s l i g h t
bruise a c r o s s the small of the
back and a mark of the wheel
across the abdomen. Since the
accident t h e little g i r l h a s been
as active and h a p p y about h e r
play as usual.
