the paved street of Philipsburg,
about 8.30 o'clock Saturday night,
Miss Helen Watral, 17 years old, of
Hawk Run, sustained a badly frac-

street. She was rushed to the hos-
pital where the gravity of her con-
dition was apparent at once, and

sciousness.

of death as purely accidental.
Miss Watral was a daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Watral, who
survive with two sisters and three
brothers. She was a member of
the choir of the Greek Catholic
church, at Hawk Run. Funeral
services were held in the church
