Brown held his an- nual ng bee on Thursday of last week when a number of cross-cut saws and axes wielded by skilled arms to worked up a great quantity of wood. a little over -about three miles east of that town. In the smash on the C.P.R., ane out, and John Kenn Sih No. 20, which left Toronto "4 on Sars, however, remained on thé track, so that no damage was done 'to them, A As a result of these two accidents, both Yailway lines were 'blocked, and no traffic passed over them for nearly twenty-four hours. Engineer Kennedy, Toronto, was killed, and Trainman Holmes was injured, but not seriously, when a fast eastbound C. P. R. freight was wrecked at Gibson's siding three miles east of Bow- manville, about 1.45 on Saturday morning. The fireman and brakeman jumped clear and were not injured. "The wreck was causéd by a washout about 100 feet east of 'Gibson's siding, where the track crosses the road known as con- | cession street. The road bed was washed out for about fifteen feet. On hitting this washout, the engine was apparently derailed but continued on its course parellel to the track for about 200 feet, where it turned over on its side and ploughed into the mud bank on the south side of the track. The fact that the engine stayed upright for this distance allowed the fireman and brakeman who were riding in the cab to jump clear, but Engineer Kennedy died at.his post. His body was horribly mutilated as the cars piled upon the engine, telescoping the cab, but it is thought that death was instantaneous. CAR PLUNGED INTO HARMONY CREEK WHEN BRIDGE WASHED OUT BY STORM ON FRIDAY NIGHT Walter Northop and Miss Helen Wright, of Peterboro, lost their lives when car was thrown into the water at an early hour on Saturday morning after deluges of rain had caused the de- struction of bridge over creek--two other occupants of the car were rescued. Harry Northop and Stanley Northop, had mir- aculous escapes from death when they were precipitated into the swirling water of Harmony creek along with Miss Wright and Walter, Northop, and only quick action by the fire department saved Harry, while Stanley managed to swim with the current to a point a mile below the highway and finally gain the shore. The four occupants of the automobile had attended, in com- pany with Mrs. Walter Northop last Frida; ay. night, the performance of Boy Scout troops at the Rotary Hall on Centre St., Oshawa. When the performance was completed, Mrs. Northop was taken to the home of her brother, Albert Ingram, where she stayed and the quartet started for Peterboro. They crossed the Harmony bridge going east but were forced to halt when they came upon a wash-out in the highway at the second Harmony bridge, situated about 200 yards east of the village. A large fissure had opened in the road and traffic was halted from both directions. Thinking the only sensible thing to do would be to go back to Oshawa and stay at the Ingram home, the car was turned and driven in the' direction of Oshawa again. What happened after that the suryivors are uncertain, save that all at once the car by a wash air, and turned upside down in the creek. The rain was coming down in sheets, the survivors state and Walter Northop who was driving, must have been blinded by the storm, being unable to perceive the broken highway until he had driven right into it.
