Lehigh switch engine No. (87, with several cars attached, had backed up from Sayre and stopped just east of the crossing, the last car close to the sidewalk. Cone ductor Wallace and Engineer Chas, Rolfe and Brakeman Van Orman, all of Sayre, were the crew. The little fellow was just crossing when the train was started suddenly and he was knocked down and the wheels crushed his left leg in a ternible manner, and his left arm was fractured. : The boy was carried into the Fulton House and Drs. Tucker and Betowski attended him and made him as comfortable as pos sible. The ambulance from the Robert Packer hospital at Sayre was sent for and he was taken to that institution. It was found nec- essary to ampftate “the leg in the upper third. Both bones of the forearm were found to be broken. It was at first thought that the boy could not recover, but his con- dition was very satisfactory this afternoon. FOUND GUILTY Waverly—]John Qleason, the young man who was arrested last Wednesday night for throwing things about and creating a dis turbance in the opera house was given a hearing this morning and found guilty. He was fined §; and in imposing the fine Judge Hoagland stated that the rowdyism that had prevailed at the opera house should cease and that so far as he was concerned he would do his share toward stopping it, and the next one found guilty would probably suffer a much heavier penalty. —— A eee Waverly—Guy E.
