"A good many accidents took place, one way and another. with those fences, which it seems to me now must have cost father even more than the fences did. I re- memiber ane night the horses got tearing around the fields and bumped into a part of the fence which had been neglected for some time past, for the reason that we were busy harvesting the hay. There was- a field of green grain.

We took her to a hospital in Kingston 'where she was again examined by an eminent specialist. lie said she bad Appendicitis and must be operated on at once if we wasted' to save her life. As we had taken her to Kingston to have this done, we were ready, but our daughter was afraid and cried and begged so pitifully, that we postponed it for that day. Luckily for us and for her an uncle came in with come 'Fruit-a-tives' and insisted on Ella taking them.
