BUT ONLY SCARED. BOY'S TROLLEY SMASHED BY MOTOR CAR. A boy named George Jamieson, 10 years of age, residing with his parents in Queen Street, Onehnpga, about 5 o'clock last evening got a scare that he is not likely to forget. He was playing with his trolley (a candle-box on four wheels) in Queen Street just outside the "Star" agency, when the trolley swerved towards the tramline, was caught by a passing motor car and crushed like an egp shell. The boy was tossed up in the air and came down on his feet, wondering what had happened. He ran for his life Into his own home next door more scared than hurt.
