An inquest was ordered by Coroner Robert Ferguson, after consultation with Crown Attorney A. M. Judd. The little boy left the school a few minutes after 12 o'clock and was somewhat later than his classmates. Two little girls told the Principal that the child ran first to the opposite side of the street and almost imraed- iately ran back again in the path of the auto. The front wheels crossed his abdomen. He was rushed to the hospital in the police ambulance, but died a few minutes after admittance. Newton was a grandson of Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Fisher of town, and was often a visitor with his mother, Mrs. McGeoch being formery Miss Edna Fisher. The child was an ex- ceptionally bright litttle fellow, and the many friends of the parents ex- tend their sympathy in this severe blow they have received. Mr. Thos Fisher, and Mrs. H. Paton of the 4th line left Tuesday morning for London.
