, An INJERED MAN OUT IN THE STORM ALL NIGHT.—
A very painful MA thing erous accident happened in the
storm of Tuesday night, to • coastguardsman named
! Williams, who hail been a resident of Weymouth. lie
was eut on duty, and was walking on the East I liii. near
a place called Shepherd!. Dinner, between the Prison and
TealisYlvania Castle. The wind was mast violent and
battling, and Mr. Williams on paining a part where the
cliff ben,bi inward, either stepped or was blown over. Ho
I fell between 30 and 40 feet sheer down. Red was a 0 mach
injured that he was unable to move, while the howling of
the storm prevented him from making himself heard in
I that unfrequented part. So the poor fellow lay there all
night, and had to suffer in addition to his pain, the °ranch-
ing of the tremendous rain that fell in the early morning.
He was missed, and at daylight a number of coast,Narthe
men went out searching for him • but they dui not
discover him till about 10 o'cle.ck. Mr. Ward, of
Wakehain, kindly len: a spring cart, and the sufferer was
brought hones to the On-hill coastguard station. Here he
was attended by Dr. McL&ut and his assistant, Dr. Pease,
and was found to have sustained a fracture of the right
wrist, another fracture of the right arm, and injuries to
his rile; and back. The poor magi was still conscious, his
arm was much swollen, and lie was suffering also from
the effects of the exposure. All was dune for him that
was thought desirable, but the injuries preclude any hope
of a speedy recovery, and probably the sufferer will become
worse iit first. 1
