Killed By His Horse

Mr. and Mrs. William Fair, who live in Aun Arbor town, near Dixboro, had two bright cliildren, an only son, a bright boy of thirteeu, and a little daughter. Now tbey mourn tlie loss of their son, Eugene, vhose death was caused by his falliug from a horse while returning home from this city a week ago last Saturday. lie had been in the city to attend Uncle Totn's Oabin and was undoubtedly in haste to reach home, so as to finish his chores. The horse he was riding was ïiot at all a vicious one, and he had ridden it a great many times. But it shied this time near the railroad crossing, throwing him from its back and setting its foot down upon his head. The cork on the horse 's shoe cut into the skull back of tlie ear. He got up, walked into an adjoining house and after a little while rode home. He seemed perfectly well and last week attended school, playing with the other scholars and showing what was apparently only a scalp wound back of the ear. Last Friday he was taken with a pain in the head and nausea and all the Bvmptoms of inflammation of the brain set in. He grew worse and was for most of the time unconseious until death came to his relief about six o'clock, Tuesday evening. He had probably taken cold in the wound and the cork had probably penetrated the outer table of the skull . He was au exceedingly bright boy and was of great assistance to his parents, who have the sympathy of the community.
