a rock with the veapon between his
legs which were rossed at the knees.
Shortly afterwar s .he arose to go
over to his broth r. In arising Nor -

the palm of the hand. It was an un-
fortunate accident, but might have
been a great deal worse.

mother-in-law, to her home in Sea -
forth, in his car, C .Davidson, of town,
accompanying them. On the return
trip about 5 pan., immediately north
of the old Govenlock mill at Winthrop,
the accident occurred. The township
road machine, • was at work on the
road - ,with two span of horses,- going
south and Reeve Armstrong of Hul-
lett,• who was driving his car with
Henderson sf ollowing, Mr. Armstrong
stopped to speak to the. men on the
grader and not expecting this Hender-
son's. car front fender caught the back
fender on the Reeve's car. • No yery
serious damage was done, but Mr.
Henderson had to make a quick turn
miss the road machine and in doing
so his car turned turtle and in the up
set the, drivel's head struck the hard
road bed, dislocating his . spine near
the shoulder and paralyzing him from
the neck down. The car was said to
be running about twenty miles an
hour. Ready hands conveyed the in-
jured man to the home ,of Mr. Thomas
Broom nearby and a hurry call was
phoned to Seaforth for a physician
but nothing could be done, Mr. S.
Carter was communicated with to take
Mrs. Henderson to Winthrop and the
children followed later. The injured
man knew them and talked to them
and also made his will. On Friday
forenoon he lapsed into unconscious-
ness and he died about noon,. He was
born in McKillop township, 35 years
ago and his wife was Miss Gertrude
Murray, of Tuckersmith, before her
marriage. The children are Harold
and Edith. Giving up farming in Mc-
Killop, the deceased bought out the
dray business in Brussels three 'or
four years ago frcitn- Tindall Ritchie,
now of Wingham and carried 'it on
mast successfully. He had a splendid
outfit; consisting of two fine draft
teams and necessary rigs, including
the street watering cart, and very few
were the idle days he spent, usually
being.rushed with work, which he at-
tended to promptly and in good style.
he funeral took place on Sunday af-
ternoon from the home of his brother,
James, in McKillop. The service was.
conducted by Rev. W. E. Stafford, of
Brussels, assisted by Rev. George Mc-
Kinley, of Seaforth. Interment was
made in the Maitlandbank cemetery
near Seaforth. Deceased was a mem-
ber of the Orange Order. His mother
lives in Seaforth. There are three
brothers, John and Herbert, of Sea-
forth;
eaforth; and James, referred to; and
four sisters, Mesdames Gordon, Mc-
Clure, Wright and Lamont. The ac-
cident came as a great shock to Mrs.
Henderson, of course, and she and the
children and other relatives are deeply.
sympathized with. Mr. Davidson, who
was riding in the front seat of the
car, found himself in the back seat
when the unset took place. He was
injured in his limbs and hand. The
car was also considerably dsimeged,--
