Yes, we miss our little Minnie, / Every morning when we wake, / For we were so sure of kisses / That she loved to give and take. / Miss her, yes, we all miss her, / Where she used to take her place, / At the table, right between us, / Never more to see her face.
Miss our Darling! Oh, how often / At the hours of eight or nine; / Miss the crib she used to sleep in; / Miss them, yes, so many times. / Miss her, yes, we all miss her, ever / Miss her by our side at night, / For we know that she will never / Say, papa, mamma, good night.
Kiss the little curly tresses / Cut from her bright golden hair; / Do the angels kiss our darling / In the realms so bright and fair? / Oh, we pray to meet our darling, / For a long, long sweet embrace, / Where the little feet are waiting, / And we meet her face to face.
In Coventry [Chenango Co. NY], April 22d, Job H. Knickerbocker, aged 16 years 6 months 5 days.
Frightful and Fatal Accident: We learn of one of the most frightful and fatal accidents that has happened in this section in many years. It appears that a young man, 16 years of age, by the name of Job Knickerbocker, in the employ of James M. Phillips, of Coventry [Chenango Co. NY], was on Saturday night boiling sap in an old house used for that purpose. During the night, becoming somewhat weary, he crawled up over the pans where, it seems, there was a second floor, or upper room, and while there he fell into a sleep, and rolled off into the pans below. these pans were full of boiling sap. He struck on his stomach, between the two pans, his feet entering the boiling say of one pan, while his hands were thrown into the other. He was fearfully scaled at either extremity. We understand that he extricated himself from this perilous position and walked about half a mile to the house of his mother, (a widow lady) where after lingering a short time in great agony, he died.
