(Bridgeton, N.J.) 1851-1884: 1 December 1855 December 1, 1855 Fatal Accident.—Aaron Bradway Waddington, of Woodstown, died on Thursday evening last from the injuries he received by being thrown out of his wagon on Tuesday night previous. He and John Woolman had been riding during the day and had driven at a very rapid rate from Sbarptown. They brought up so suddenly in turning into Keen’s, that both were violently thrown out, the horse prostrated and the wagon broken, and one wheel turned inside out and mashed up. Waddington never recovered his consciousness and continued apparently in intense agony till death put a period to his existence. He died in about 48 hours after the occurrence leaving a small family of orphan children. Mr. Woolman was considerably injured but is about again. This is a terrible warning for the reckless fast boys of our times.— Constitution.
