RUN OVER BY DRAY.
CHILD SERIOUSLY INJURED. (By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.) TE AROIIA. this day. A painful accident happened to the throe-year-oM child of Mr. Fred Mile?, mail contractor at Waihou. After louding gravel into a dray at the sand pit adjoining his place, Mr. Miles placed his little child in the dray and went to the horse's head to lead it out from the pit, when he heard a scream. The child by some means fell off the dray, and the wheel passed over the left shoulder, which was badly crushed, three ribs being broken, one penetrating the lung. The child also received a blow on the head, which rendered it unconscious. Medical aid was summoned. The child is at present in a precarious condition.
