DREADFUL ACCIDENT ON

--kIV-27 RAILWAY.

ROCHESTER, THURSDAY.

A lamentable accident occurred on the North
Kent Railway this afternoon, between Strood and
Gravesend, attended, unfortunately, with the death
of one person and injury to several others. The
train to which the accident occurred was the 3.10
p.m., up train from Strood, which follows imme-
diately after the express. The train was composed
of seven carriages, consisting of two of thed three
large
saloon first-class carriages, two seconds,
an
thirds, together with the guard's break van
stationdirectly
after the engine. The train left Strood
within a minute of its proper time,
page being at Higham. its first stop-
After leaving that station

the service of the company a great number of years,
and was a most valuable servant. The engine, a
very large and powerful one, was buried in the
ditch, and all the carriages which left the line were
shattered to pieces. Fortunately, there were only
a very few passengers in the train, or the loss of
life must have been very great.
