SCHOOL GIRL WAS FROZEN ON PRAIRIE


CHILDREN ARE SEPARATED FROM HORSE AND CUTTER

Winnipeg, (Man.), Feb 2.—Two children, Muriel, aged 15, and Fred McKelvey, aged 11, were upset and separated from their pony and cutter on their way home from attending school at Holmfield yesterday.

Many people turned out to seek the children and kept up the search all night. This morning the boy called at one of the neighbors. His feet and face were frozen, having stayed in a strawstack all night. His sister was found by his father, John S. McKelvey a couple of hours later, frozen to death.
