IO On Saturday afternoon last, while Mr. Richard Fitch, of Manvers, was with his two brother-in-laws, John and \Villiam Sission, engaged in falling trees and getting out timber met with a terrible accident which resulted in his death the following day. It appears that Mr. Fitch and William Sisson were engaged sawing a tree which had been felled, while John was cutting down a tree a short distance away. This tree in falling struck a sapling, which threw it out of its expected course and right across where Mr. Fitch stood. Before the litter could escape he was struck by the falling tree fracturing his skull, causing internal paralysis. He was at once conveyed to his home. and Dr. Brereton summoned, and ‘ although everything was done that medical ’skill could prompt, he never regained j consciousness and expired about six o’clockl on Sunday evening ...... The deceased was} well and popularly known throughout this district. He was inhis thirty-sixth year, and leaves a widow and two children to mourn the loss of a kind husband and father. The funeral on Tuesday to St. Mary’s church, near Liflord, was very largely attended, and was under the supervision of the Canadian Order of Foresters, of Bethany, of which lodge he was a member ...... Only some few weeks ago the deceased had received the news of the death of an uncle in England and who had bequeathed to him some $1, 500 ...... He also carried an insurance in the Sun Life and Canadian Order of Foresters. IHE WATCHMAN. LINDSAY, THURSDAY MARCH 21,1895. Are You Gomg? Where!

A peculiar accident happened on the Midland division of the Grand Trunk north of Whitby last Friday. Wednes- day night's storm ï¬lled up the tunnel- like cuttings through the snowdrifts on the ridges, so that there has been no traffic until yesterday afternoon. To clear the way an engine and snow-plouth from Lindsay, under charge of Conductor Russell were working south and had got nearly to Myrtle, when from making a terriflic “bunt†at a big bank of snow, the: last big one there was, the coupling be-1 tween engine and plough broke. The momentum was sufï¬cient to carry the heavily-weighted snow-plough through the obstruction. Free from control. the wildcat car started on the steep down grade of the six or seven hundred feet fall from the ridges to Lake Ontario. When Brooklin was reached the speed was tremendous. A message from that station to the two Whitby agencies, Mr. Wm. Brown and Mr. C. A. Hopkins, sounded the alarm. A great pile of ties laced across the track near the round- ouse here was knocked out of the way ‘like so many shavings. For fear of a 1smash the train leaving Toronto at 1.20 p.m. on the main line. due at Whitby junction while the station ofï¬cials were awaiting the snow-plough, was held at the bridge west of the town, and a yard- ful of freight trains safely moved out of harm’s way. By the time Whitby was reached. the runaway snow-plough was estimated to be running 70 or 80 miles an hour. 1‘0 save the snow-plough from plunging into the lake at the harbour ter- minal, the wildcat Was swit:hed off at the Junction, and run into a great pile of ties that thus answered admirably for a snubbing post or anchor. Curiously enough the plough has sustained only slight damage. and the special train crew had no difï¬culty in getting it back on the rails again. - â€"- Mr. W.
