June 23, 1916. 
ATEST reports of the condition of Miss Katherine C. 
Blodgett of Pride’s Crossing show that she is restiag 
comfortably and improving from the serious accident of 
Tuesday afternoon when she was thrown from her horse 
near Central square, Beverly Farms. 
Miss Blodgett is the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. 
John W. Blodgett of Grand Rapids, Mich., who are 
spending the summer in the Saltonstall cottage at Mingo 
Beach. She is an expert horsewoman and was riding a 
new, high spirited horse belonging to her riding master 
at Beverly Farms, with whom she was riding at the time 
of the accident. The horse became somewhat frightened, 
and upon turning from Everett into Hale street, slipp2d 
and fell. Miss Blodgett received no internal injuries, 
and seemed to escape in an almost miraculous manner 
from what might have been a very grave accident. Miss 
Blodgett was one of this year’s graduates at Miss Spence’s 
school in New York, where she received honorable men- 
tion in the class. Last week she took the Vassar exam- 
inations and passed creditably nearly all of the freshman 
studies, so that next year she will enter practically the 
sophomore year. She and her mother had been at their 
summer home only a few days before the accident. Mr. 
Blodgett had been in Chicago attending the conventioizi 
and was still in the west Sith his son, John Wood Blod- 
gett, Jr. Mrs. Blodgett’s sister from Lowell came over 
the night of the accident. Miss Blodgett was prominenc 
‘inal of the social affairs of the younger set of the North 
Shore last summer, and will be sadly missed until she wid 
be able to take her place again in their midst, which will 
be a little later on in ops season.

Wine. ER is gone from hill and plain, 
Stiminer and joy are here again; 
The roses waft in fullest bloom, 
To one and all their rich perfume; 
The birds in the tree-tops sweetly sing, 
The lowing herds their bells do ring, 
And each and all take up the call 
Of one whose voice doth softly fall 
To tell of peace, of joy, of pride, 
Of all that doth in man abide. 
The sky above is brightest blue,— 
It speaks of honor, grand and true; 
And here and there a fleecy cloud, 
Floats on a message pure and proud— 
A song of gladness, sweet and low, 
To all who pause, and hark to know 
What one clear path in life to take, 
To think and act, for Christ’s own sake: 
*Tis in all you say, and all you do,— 
Ever “To Thine Own Self Be True.”
