Spirit of the Times Batavia, Genesee Co., NY January 10 1843 DEPLORABLE ACCIDENT. On Wednesday (the 21st ult.) while three Sons, and some of the Neighbors of George LATHROP, Esq., at his residence in Bethany, were engaged in sawing wood with a rotary machine saw, driven by six horse power, one of the cast-iron wheels which was revolving with great velocity flew in pieces, and a piece weighing about thirty pounds was hurled with tremendous force against Franklin his youngest son, and injured him so severely as to cause his death in a few hours. The principal external injury was a terrible fracture of one of his arms, near the shoulder. But it was supposed by the Physicians that the size of the fragment and the force of the blow, inflicted a fatal external injury. Mr. Franklin LATHROP was just twenty one years of age, and died universally esteemed as an intelligent and worthy young man. All who knew him will sincerely lament his loss, and deeply sympathize with his aged and respected parents, and a large circle of relatives, in this most afflicting bereavement. -Times & Journal. *** submitted by L.C.
