Sahly, John

SAD FATAL ACCIDENT. - Last Wednesday evening a number of young men and boys were enjoying themselves by sleigh-riding down one of the long and steep hills at Glenwilliams, when an accident which resulted fatally occurred. Mr. John Sahly, aged about 21 years, was on the sleigh with a number of others, and the sleigh was descending the hill with great velocity, and in crossing a bridge it was accidently steered over the edge and the occupants scattered around, the young man receiving fatal injuries by being struck in the abdomen with the end of a broken plank. Medical aid was at once procured, but he lived only a few hours after the accident. His sorrowing parents have the sympathies of the community.
