(Somerset, Pa.) June 29, 1892 A most distressing accident is reported from Upper Turkeyfoot township. On Friday afternoon the two year old grand-daughter of Jacob Younkin, while attempting to recover a tin cup which had fallen into a spring, lost her balance and tumbled in head foremost. The spring is only a short distance from the house, and in a few minutes the mother went to it to see what had became of her child and was horrified to find its lifeless body at the bottom of the spring. We have been unable to learn the name ofthe child's parents.
