gentle tap on the cover of her box, Of
the same time looking at Ike, who was
engaged in making kite out OF the
last Puritan Recorder, that the Game

the train this OCCASION for the pu pose of leaving
some freight cars at that station, by the platform
with the design of switching back. Mr.. Davis, not
being aware Of this design, and supposng the train
was going on, attempted to climb down of the
freight cars, in doing which his feet caught and he
fell with his leg the before the wheels which
passed over him infcting a fatal wound. No blame
attaches to any bat it is another warning to

cars while in motion.
