An accident of unknown origin befell Mr. Jas. Batchelor on Monday morning of last week. Mr. Batchelor had gone in search of his cattle, which had strayed from his premises. When found, he was in a dazed con- dition. Belief that the accident oc- curred on No. 10 Highway is caused when his bat was found on the road- side in front of the former Aaron Jordon farm. Mr. Batchelor had been riding horse back and was ac- companied by his dog. Though daz- ed he still had hold of his horse. Both he and his dog were injured. Injuries sustained by Mr. Batchelor were a dislocated and splintered shoulder, shock and general shaking up. We hope for a sipeedy and com- plete recovery. iMrs. Wm.
