STRANGE AND FATAL ACCIDENT - The Huntingdon Monitor says: - On the 31st 
ult., a lad about 12 years of age, named Keller, went to the barn of a 
Mr. Shaffer, of Waterstreet, for the purpose of feeding the cattle, and 
while throwing out the fodder at the overshot, his foot slipped and he 
fell down upon the head of one of the cattle, one of the horns 
penetrating into the boy's body near the heart. He was taken up and 
carried into the house where he lingered about two hours when death 
came to his relief.
