14 year old Willie TOWER s/o Amos TOWER of the North End, met his death in a sad manner Saturday night. Early in the eve. he left his home with his little handsled to go coasting and an hour or so later was taken back dead. His death occurred in this way. He was riding on what is known as Cradle Hill on Howe's Road and was going down one incline at a great rate of speed. A double runner coming in the opposite direction struck him and knocked him a dustance of fully 15 feet. The end of the forward sled of the double runner struck the boy on the left side and penetrated the flesh exposing the heart to view. In some way the boy received a terrible blow on the back of the head which would have alone caused death. The injured lad was carried to Charles Wade's drug store on Wall St. and Dr. Thomas Walker, jr., who happened to be there, attended him. Dr. Walker could do nothing to save the young fellow's life and in about 20 minutes he died. Coroner Berryman was summoned and ordred the removal of the body to the boy's home on Main St., North End. An inquest will be held tonight. The deceased was a bright lad and attended the Winter St. School. Shortly after the accident the police arrested Robert CURRIE, James McANULTY and Robert McKAY on suspicion of having been on the double runner which caused young Tower's death. Last eve. the police arrested four more who were on the big sled. Fred WHALEN, Henry JONES, Robert ALLAN and Arthur WOODLEY. The sled was owned by Woodley and was found at his home on Broad St. It is splattered with blood and the steering bar on it is broken where it came in contact with young Tower's sled. The double runner was steered by Henry Jones whose hand was quite badly cut by the collision. The prisoners are from 15 to 20 years of age. There were besides them two little girls and a lad named KINGSTON on the sled, but they have not been arrested. Yesterday hundreds of people visited the place where the boy was killed.
