Many of our citizens, and a number ofcounty friends, in vch‘clos, had gath- ered at the residence of Mr. R.

As the body was being carried to th; hearse a light engine came thundering down the gradgand tho-e driving rostivo homes were lrgad to go up aside street foo- ty. Shortly after the funeral cortego had left the residence. and while the hearse and mourners were about opposite Msunder's mill. the engine ret urnedâ€"at high speed. It was at first supposed that the driver would slow up for a few moments to allow the procession to turn off onto Pool-est. cast, but with culpable un- concern and disregard for all conse- quences he kept on his way, and for a short time a dire disaster appeared to be imminent. as fully. a doses) horses seemed to be on the point of getting beyond the control of their drivers. Fortunately only one team got away; they were attached to a covered carriage containing Mr. and. Mm. Thus. Dark. and Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Dark.
