CAUSE OF BISHOP CuAsE's DEATH-A son
of the Bishop has published the following state
ment:
On Tuesday, the 18th of September, he was
riding with my mother in his "buggv,"
himself driving. A few steps from his own door
some part of the harness gave way, the shafts
Of the vehicle fell down, and the horse started
forward and separated from it. The sudden
turn uhe reins being still grasped) pulled HIM
forward, and Mrs. Chase rising at the same
lime, the seat gave way, and he fell on his right
de and shoulder. The reins kept his head
from striking, and the horse remained quiet; no
injury was sustained but the shock and the gen.
sral bruise: no bones were broken. He was
conveyed to the house, and the
best medical aid procured. He suffered very
much on Saturday, and still then no serious APP
,rehensions were felt by his family. Sund1y
he suffered less, but became wandering in his
nind, with high fever. He sank rapidly, and
IN Monday, the 18th, at 6 o'clock, A. M. he
:almny and gently expired
