The friend from whom we obtained the information writes as follows: "Mr. J McClintock had gone out of his field to aid a neighbor in cutting down a tree in pursuit of game. As the tree fell it struck against a dead tree which as it rebounded broke off and fell on him fracturing his skull and broke one of his legs. He lived about six hours after the accident He has left a wife and seven children to mourn his loss together with a large circle of friends by whom he was respected for the short time he had been with them Mr. J. McClintock was born and raised in Chester District and he moved to this country last winter where he had settled comfortably and was prospering well in the world.
