The young Llad had just left the steps of his home Land" walked out on to the lawn io pick up a leaf, when, witnesses say, the, car ded off the road, over cnr across the lawn, pin- uitig the child underneath and caus- ing dlmost-instant death, The front wheels, it is said, went into a hole, letting the bottom part of the auto- mobile drop on the youngster. He sustained many injuries to the head and back of the neck. The spine was fractured and the neck dislocated. Mrs. Morello is a daughter of Tho- mas H. Classen, who lives next doo: to the Matta family, Last evening Mrs. Morrello had been at her fa- ther's home, and had her father in the car at the time of the accident. It is .said she had been instructing him how to drive. They had been up and down the street, and had just started to go west again when the youngster came out on the lawn to .pick up the leaf. He was possibly some eight or nine feet from the side- walk when struck by the car. He was knocked down and was under the car, apparently little injured, when the front wheels dropped into soft earth in the next lot, allowing the entire weight of the car to come down on the boy. The grandfather of the child was standing but a few feet away at the time, but the car shot across the lawn so fast, he says, that he was unable to do anything. An inquest was ordered, and this morning Dr. Green, Coroner, sum- moned a jury, who, after viewing the body of the victim and inspecting the scene of the 'accident, adjourned to meet on Wednesday night. Another Child Struck Doris Isabella Dunn, three-yéar-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Raymond Dunn, Kingston, visiting in the city, was struck by a truck on Dundas Street Saturday afternoon. The little girl was taken to the hospital, where it was found that outside of cuts on the chin, neck and arms, the young- ster had escaped serious injury. She was able to leave the hospital this afternoon. A Toronto couple, Mr, and Mrs, Clifford Hartley of 175 Blackthorn Avenue, got into difficulties on the highway east of Woodstock on Sat- urday afternoon. In the auto mix-up their car overturned, but Mr. and Mrs. Hartley escaped with minor cuts and bruises, They were taken to Woodstock Hospital, but had so far recovered as to be able to leave the hospital this afternoon. Three Drown in Sydenham Wallaceburg, June 30.--Thre per- sons were drowned over the week- end in the River Sydenham, near thé Walpole Island lower ferry, about four miles from here. The first vic- tim was Russell Wherritt, aged 36, of Putnam Avenue, Detroit, a member of a pleasure cruising ° party on the launch Restless, belonging to B. Ed- win Hutchinson, Secretary-Treasurer of the Chrysler Motor Corporation, Diving into the extremely cold wa- ter about 200 yards from the ferry on Saturday evening about 5.15 o'- clock, the unfortunate man was never scen again until his lifeless body was recovered by two Indians in a dinghy who had joined in the dragging op- erations, and who will share the re» ward of $150 which was offered by Mr. Hutchinson for the recovery of the body. The body was taken out of the water shortly before 2 o'clock on Sunday afternoon, and was found just a short distance away from where the man had disappeared, in 35 feet of water.

The deceased was single," and was connected with the Anac ire and Cable Com- pany in Detroit. Car Goes Into Water The second fatality occurred on Sunday morning, shortly after 11 o'clock, while the search for Wher- ritt's body was in progress. Only a few hundred yards away from the spot where Wherritt lost his life, on- lookers were. horrified to sce a small coupe run on to the ferry, fail to stop, and capsize into the water at the farther end. Efforts of those on the mainland proved to ze of no avail, and a wrecker was sent for from Wallaceburg. The car was raised and two lifeless bodies, of a man and a woman, were extricated, The wvic- tims were later identified as John Hooper, aged 63, Dresden, a married man, and Florence Biddulph, aged 29, who resides on the farm of Rob- ert Huff, Chatham Township. Find- ing of 2 box of food in the car leads to the belief that the unfortunate cou- ple were proceeding to Walpole Isl- and for a picnic. A jury was empanelled by Coroner Dr. Taylor, and after viewing the re- mains adjourned until next Friday af- W. A.

Hooper is survived by his widow, four sons, two daughters and three brothers. The remains were brought to Wallaceburg, = Hooper will be buried at Ennett, from the home of his brother, Richard, while no definite arrangements have been made for the woman's 'funeral, The rising of 'the' 'water - of the river overnight increased the grade up to the ferry, with the result that extra speed was necessgry for cars to get on the ferry. This is believed to be the cause of the tragedy, together with the failure of the brakes of Hooper's car. Five Men Drowned Quebec, June 30.--Five men weve drowned at Riviere du oup today when the bridge at the Warren Mills, upon which they were standing, col- lapsed.

Phone 189 members of the party, left Toronto on Saturday. At an early hour on Sunday, while the remainder of the pary were sleep- ing in the camp, the three Bisset bro- thers and Smith got out the boat, it is reported, and started out on th- lake. At that point there are no campers along the shores, so that there was no one on land to watch their progress. At about 100 yards from shore the high waves filled the boat, which set- tled to the water's édge, leaving the four men struggling in the water. All four cliatched on to the gunwales, and began slowly to propel the sunken craft toward the shore. They were making some progress when suddenly William Bisset ap- parently was seized with cramps, and sank. He did not rise to the sur- face again, His brothers and Smith were so exhausted with the struggle against the waves that they were obliged to continue toward shore, When they reached land the alarm was spread, and three hours later Kenneth Connor of Madoc recovered the body with grappling irons, Coro- ner Dr. S. Eagleson communicated with Crown Attorney B. C. Donnan at Belleville, who decided that an inquest would not be neeessary. The remainder of the party is expected to arrive home with the body before this morning. Wedding Day Near William Bisset was to have been married on July 19 to Méss Theressa Gow, 347 Leslic Street.
