          FATAL ACCIDENT.-- NATHAN YOUNG, JR., who has recently been        
      working for Andrew FREEBORN, Jr., in Haverford township, Del. county,
      was killed in a most sudden and horrible manner on Tuesday of last 
      week. He was bringing a load of grain or feed from Philadelphia, and 
      when between the Cross-Keys and the toll-gate the horses must have
      tried to run away. Just what happened is not known, but Mr. YOUNG
      was found lying in the road by Dr. J. W ECKFELDT, the wagon having
      run over his head. His face and brow also showed a mark as though
      first kicked by one of the horses. His death must have been, almost
      instantaneous. He was buried on Thursday last from his home at
      Bryn Mawr where he leaves a wife and child.
