In Bush By Falling Tree Mr. Robert Brown, a young man liv ing a mile and a quarter north of Flesher- ton, brother of Councillor Fred Brown, was so M-Ttuusly injured by a falling tree on Thursday last tlut he die J the follow- ing afternoon after remaining un- conscious from the time of the accident. The young man was working in the buah with Mr. Bert Douglas of the west buck line. They were felling a iree winch had i's top broken and resting again.st another tree. When the tree began to fall Mr. Brown ran, but wiih a tree situated as this one it was impossible to tell what it wuuld do anil the young man rau directly iu line of tbe falling tree, which struck him aud crushtd him to the ground. He* wn taken I Mr. Douglas' home aud dieters summoned, but they decided that nothing ruuki be done. The injuiy to the ukull appeared to b bligh', but. the doctors thought the b-~c of the brain wat affected. The yuct; man remained delirium until Friday afteruoou, when he passed aay. The deceased wai a very <(uitt, retiring young man of j-ood charac cr, and waa about .Uyeais of iii>e. He lived with hia brother and siater, Mr. Fr, d .stul Mi> Bella Brown, a mile and a i|iur:cr north of Fleshertun. Their parents died some yiars ago. Much *ynipaihy is ex- pressed for the sorrowing brother aud .-i^ter. A sad feature of the case was 'hat the yuii_' man was shortly 10 be married. The funeral took place Monday afur- noon to Orange Valley cemetery under the auspices of tl.e Orange order, of which deceased was a memt/er. Many Moral tributes attested to the sympathy of friends ai.d the popul;irily of the yun^ in.in who W4s so early and so -uddenly called away. The funeral on Mouday w-is probably one of the largest ever hell in the district. The Moral olferingt were very beauti ful, be-ina composed of a wreath from ;L. O. L No. &M. a sickle from the I'res byteiian church, an anchor and other dowers from neighbors. L. O. L. S.'.
