Accident to Little Girl
On Saturday last, a little girl named Astman, whilst playing on the road at Denaby Main, was accidentally run over by a horse and trap.
The owner of the conveyance at once procured a doctor, who on examining the little sufferer found her better than expected, she having one rib fractured. It was also feared that she had received internal injuries, but these fears were allayed when it was known that the parents and child had left the district, proving her injuries not to be serious or they would have prevented her removal.
