From the London Echo - One of the saddest affairs that has occurred in the mountains for several years, happened in Clay County a few days ago.

Mr. George Lincks was carrying a log of wood on his shoulder, and not noticing where he threw it down, let it drop on one of his little girls, a bright-eyed little child of three summers, and broke her neck. She died immediately.
