R. A. DOUGLAS, sanitary inSpector. Lindsay, April 28th, 1597. That G.T.R. Hcrse Case In Mindefl. To the Editor of the Watchman. Simâ€"I happened to be in Lindsay on Monday and picked up a copy C1 the liven- ing l’ost containing a report of the case tried in Minden. Now, as l was at .he trial I wondered at little how at ease. tried in Minden on the afternoon of Friday could appear in a paper printed in Lindsay on Saturday, and so I read the report and concluded that it was written by the lawyer for the G.T.R., because it brings out every point that. could be made against the plaintitl's and glosses over the neglect of the railroad. As your readers may not have observed it, and as it contains a question of law of considerable importance to people owning land along the railroad, I will give you a short statement of it. Two neighbors. each owning a horse, hitch‘ ed them together and started todraw wood to the track. where they were delivering it to Mr. Watson of this village. They had to draw it across three farms, and used a road made for the purpose, on which sev- eral people were, like themselves, drawing wood to the track, and amongst them was the owner of the lot adjoining the railroad. It was proven that he was aware that the plaintitl‘ and the others were using the road and was satisfied that they should do so. Oneniorning, with a load of wood on their new sleigh, when coming down hill the reach broke. the horses became fright- ened and ran away, following the road until they came to the railroad track. and getting on the track came to a. bridge over a point of the Burnt riVer, where they got fast in the openings. The owners followed 1 hurriedly. One of them took a lantern and went up the track a mile to signal the: train, which he says he did. The train hands say they did not see any signal, and the train came on. The other owner. with some neighbors, tried to get the horses out, but had not time. A second attempt to signal the train was successful, but not soon enough. It came far enough to kill Ll'lt‘llorses before being completely stopped. altlmngh the train hands did their best. It was proven that there was no fence be tween the field and the track, and the railroad contended that they were not. liabLe to pay for the horses because they said the horses were not properly or law- fully on the land of the man who owned the farm next to therailroad, and it_would trai Lindsay, 2‘ zéx‘xXApril, 1597. *1 @%§%E@%E@@E@ , ' ":K .n'u ‘. ‘ .. .‘ .

Alter partaking of a light supper, he sat around for an hour, when no was shown to a room and retired for the night apparently all right. The following morning a domestic tried the door, which was locked, and supposed the room was un- occupied. Sunduy in this hotel is certainly a. ‘ ‘ -' »- , A .

On Monday forenoon the room was still locked and the domestic could not gain an entrance. On being informed Mr. Maunder at once became uneasy and sent a man up stairs to investigate, when McKenzie was found lying cold in death on the bed. Doctors Gillespie and Poole were at once sum- moned, and after hearing the circumstances decided thtt an inquest was unnecessary. Mr. Keith and the medical men made a search of his clothing, finding a small diary, two letters, a piece of tobacco, two knives and some matches, and a five cent piece. One letter was signed by Mr. A. ll. Hard- wiclc, hardware merchant of Niagara Falls, and the other by Mr. G. 15. J. Brown. barrister of Barrie, recommending the dCCCRSLd to certain other parties, and conveying; the information that he was a member of the Masonic fraternity. In the pockets were also found a couple ct Masonic calendars from Franklin lodge .-\.F. and .~\.M. Luceville, I’enn. These latter facts having beenbrought to the notice of the members of Faithful Brethren lodge, .~\.F. and A.M., they at once decided to take charge of the remains and made arrangements {or the burial at [he Riversrde cemetery on Tuesday morning. . . . . The deceased in conversation with several parties stated that his home was in Glasgow, Scotland, where he had a wife and three children. He had come from tl‘ere in Jan-l uary last, and on his arrival was taken very ill and was confined to the hospital for eight weeks. This sickness exhausted all his finances, and since that time he has been all over the country in search of employment, which he found very scarce. There is no doubt that the exposure and want of nourishing food efi'ected his heart and caused his untimely end.
