FATAL. ACCIDENT.-On Saturday last Mr. C.
Haseloff, teacher, of Schon field, accompanied by
his wife, drove over to Tanunda to bid farewell
to some friend there, as he was intending to re-
move to Hoyleton. In returning home he had
reached Freeling, and was passing over the
crossing, when the wheel of his spring-cart came
into contact with the post at the corner, causing
the vehicle to be capsized, Mr. Haseloff was
thrown out by the violence of the jerk a distance
of twenty-four feet, on to some new metal. Mrs.
Haseloff was also thrown out, but escaped with a
broken collar-bone, and is now going on as well
as can be expected. Mr. Haseloff's injuries
proved to be of a much more serious character,
concussion of the brain having been sustained.
The sufferers were both removed to the Freeling
Hotel, where every attention was paid them by
Mr. Elsholz, Drs. Popham and Renner were
at once summoned, who, however, gave but slight
hopes of the recovery of Mr. Haseloff, who, in
fact, never reoovered consciousness, but after
lingering until 3 a.m. on Tuesday, died. The
funeral took place on Wednesday. At noon the
procession, numbering over forty vehicles, left
the Freeling Hotel for the cemetery at Schonfeld.
" On arrival there," says a correspondent, " the
coffin was placed in the schoolroom, where the
deceased had labored hard for eleven years to do
the best for the children placed under hi« care.
The Rev. Mr. Roediger conducted the funeral
service after which Dr. Muecke addressed the
assemblage in an impressive manner, recapitulat-
ing with what love and sacrifice their friend had
incessantly worked for the welfare of the rising
generation; and exhorting them to show their
sincere love by assisting heartily in the movement
to be initiated, viz., to raise subscriptions for the
poor helpless widow and orphans. The path from
the schoolroom to the grave was strewed with
flowers, boughs, and evergreens, and the grave
itself was covered with wreaths made by the
schoolchildren.-I understand that on their re
turn from the funeral to Freeling, the following
gentlemen formed themselves into a committee,
with power to add to their number, in order to
collect subscriptions as suggested by the Rev. Mr.
Roediger and Doctor Muecke :-Messrs. Young
(Freeling), Kaiser (Lyndoch), Becker (Daveyston)
Schutz (Concordia), and Pagenrticher (New Meck-
lenburg)
