Abercynon There has been a series of accidents here re- cently, some of which, we are sorry to say, ter- minated fatally. Whilst a little boy named John Archibald Ewington, five years old, was playing on the T.V.R. iine, in company with other children, a down mineral train, time about 7.36 p.m., ran over hini. Death was instan- taneous. It was truly a morbid spectacle for those who went to the assistance of the child to find the place covered with blood, and the body in a horrible state of mutilation, which can better be imagined than described. The father is a signalman on the same line. At the inquest a verdict of "accidental death" was returned. The remains of the child were interred in St. Cynon's Churchyard on Monday, and great sym- > pathy is felt for the parents in their trying ordeal. Some new screens are in course of erection at the Dowlais Cardiff Colliery, and this was the scene of an accident to William Morton, xiie poor fellow met with the accident about mid- day, and he died at midnight the same day from the injuries. Deceased was about 25 years of age, and a Scotchman, and had come down from Scotland specially to. erect the screens. He was an Agnostic in re-" conveyed to the station on — onday to meet e 7.20 a.m. train, to be taken to Glasgow, and amongst the funeral procession was the father of deceased.
