The four year old child of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Throckmorton, of Danbury Route 1, was accidently killed Monday evening at the home of its parents in the most unusual manner. The child was playing on a heavy pole lying across a stump, which was being used a sa merry go round, when the log slipped off the stump, falling on the child and breaking its neck.
