it is thought. Mrs. Stewart was at

where she fell. She had been quilt
ing during the day and feit quite
dizzy and was .unable to maintain
her balance. Although she fell
only a short distance it was suffi
cient to cause a very serious acci
dent. Mrs. Swick and Mrs. Stewart
were alone at the time of the acci'
dent and it was about 10 o'clock be
fore there was anyone to send
for a doctor, and several of the phy
sicians being out of town it was
about midnight before one. arrived.
Grandma Stewart has passed her
eightieth mile stone, i and such an
accident at her age is indeed un
fortunate, and she has the sympa
thy of the community.
