Close Tininf Makes an Accident Possible To show the way in which events occur which make an accident we cite an occurrence which took place on Friday last when Mr. Allan McDonald suffered the loss of the point of his little finger on his left hand, while the finger next was cut deeply. Mr. McDonald was cutting limbs from the right hand side of the the tree which had been felled at Armstrong's camp, Osprey township, and Mr. Malcolm Leitch was walking on the pole and cutting the limb"; there. When the chopper lops a limb off he at once embeds the blade of the axe into tive bark of the tree ty aecure it while the throws the brush aside. This is a regular occurrence by all who do that work. On Friday Mr. McDonald was cutting on the rijht hand side of the tree alongside Mr. Leitch and and in some way he lost his balance and put his hand onto the tree to steady him- self, and at the same instant Mr. Leitch brought his axe down to em- bed it into the bark and clipped off the top of Mr. McDonald's little fin- ger and cut a gash in the one along- side. The wound was not serious but the victim is laid off work this week. It happened that only the point of the blade of the axe hit the hand, as otherwise a couple of fingers would have come off in place of the one point.
