Smith's place in No. I township. the little daughter of Viol, Jackson, colored, was caught in a rop at the home of her parents on Frida: of last week and choked to death. Cor oner Felker, having heard of the deat went up to investigate Saturday. H took the statement of Viola Jackson the mother of the child, in which sh t says: s "I left the children in the house an went to the field and directly after i left the house I heard them calling m and I come back as quick as I coul and when I got there I found my littl girl hanging in the line. She was abou chocked to death. She died in a fev minutes after I got here. I took he . out of the rope myself. I am the moth - er of the child. My little girl told m - she got in the rope and fell out of th door. There was no one else at th, - house but the two little children." Coroner Felker also took the testi - mony of the father of the child. H 1 says: "I am the father of the dead child. left the house early yesterday morn Y ing to go to the fodder field. Betweel r 10 and 11 o'clock I heard my wife mak a ing an alarm and I came to the hous and found my little girl dead. I ai satisfied it was hung in the rope acci dentally."
