DEATH FROM FREEZTNG.-The death OF Docter
Jos. E. Cox, Of Petersburg, from freezing, was
noticed yesterday We have been furnished with
the following particulars of this caamitous event:
DR.. Cox and his nephew, Robert G. Trayior left
Petersburg Sunday afternoon, In buggy, for the
purpose of visiting the fsther of the former. The
storm was raging fearfully, but they reached the
residence of DIR. Grymes, son-in law of Dr. Cox, In
Chesterfield county. about 81 miles from Peters
burg, just before night. An effort was made to
prevail on them to remain here until morning. but
DR.. Cox insisted on going toward at once. They
had proceeded only about 100 yards. when the
buggy broke down, and DR.. Cox got out to repair
the damage. Finding this impossible he started
for the house to procure assistance but before 60
ing far, hi. progress completely cut off by the
snow drifts, and the unfortunate man had no 9TH
er alternative than to remain there all night! On
Monday morning some persons at the house saw
the buggy, and went to ascertain what was the
matter. On their way thither. they came upon
DR.. Cox, lying insensble in the snow; and on pro.
ceedipg to the buggy, found Mr. Traylor, also in =
helpless condition. They were at once conveyed
TO the house. where every appliance was used to
restore them to consciousness. DR.. Cox however,
died in about an hour. Mr.. Traylor's limbs were
frozen and if be RECEIVERS at all which is extreme.
Iy doubtful it is believed that he will have to suf-
fer amputation of bis hands and feet.
