While coaling to Listowel from Brunner
Saturday night, via the G. T. R., on a
•
visit to relatives, Miss Vera Denstedt
eighteen., daughter of Mr. and Mrs. i Fred.
.Denstedt of"Ellice township, became' ex-
cited, in thinking she had passed her des
tinatio i, rushed to the platform of the.
rear coach, and jumped, while the train
was travelling at probably thirty-five or
forty miles an hour,
That she was not killed, or even serious.
ly injured, is attributed to the fact that
there was a considerable depth ` of snow
alongside the trach.
Though none' of the passengers appear-
ed to have seen her jump from : the train,
there were a number who noticed her
hurriedly leave' for the back platform and
concluding that something had happened'.
when she failed to reappear, one of ,them
notified the conductor.
;the train, then not far out of Listowel,
Was promptly stopped and banked up un-
