ACCIDENT AND DEATH.--A melancholy accI.
dent occurred al the Dover furnace, in Tusca'
ra was county on Friday, the 71h inst The
facts, as we learn from the Ohio Democrat, are
as follows The workmen we're engaged, with
block and tackle, in raising one the large plat
form elevators in the tower. They had raised
it one story, or about fifteen feet, whereit was
to be supported by sCantliug until the blocks
were made fast to higher point. Elias Gibbs
and Michael Hay, who were to place the scant-
ling under the platform stepped upon it 10 cross
to the opposite side. when suddenly the rope
around one Of the blocks parted, preclpitating
the platform and the two men TO the bottom. The
first named had sCantling in his hand at the
time, which, in the descent, was hurled against
his head with great violence, infictng terri
bic wound, from which he died in couple Of
hours. The other had no bones broken, but
was severely bruised by the fall. He is in a
critical condition, but it is supposed he will re.
cover from his injuries.
Alias Gibbs was worthy young man, and
son OF Mr.. Isaac Gibbs, an old and respected
citizen Of Dover township.
