UNMARKED GRAVE~~~~~''

Taken from the Hebron Journal dated 4-11-1878.
The sad report reaches us that a daughter of Mr. Albright, who lives near Alexandria, in this county, was killed by a farmer's roller. The circumstances as given to us are as follows: Mr. Albright's daughter, aged nine years, was attending school. During intermission, a man drove along with a heavy roller. With youthful desire for excitement, she climbed up on the roller for a ride. The ride was of short duration---she fell in front of the roller, which before the horses could be stopped, passed over her frail form and mercilessly crushed out her young life. The accident occurred last Monday.
