HORRIBLE ACCIDENT "A Member of the Dis
triet Volunteers Crushed BY the Cars Last Friday
night horrible accident occurred Just beyond
the station at Bladensburg, on the Baltimore and
Washington Railroad, by which private Drury,
Of Captain Clarks's company, was instantly killed.
Drury was stationed to guard the track, and while
on duty was induced TO drink freely-stupefying
him to such degree that while sitting upon the
track he was unconscious OF the approach Of the
evening train, although warned by the shouts Of
bis comrades. The engineer saw him, whistled
down breaks, reversed his engine, and by shouts
endeayOred TO arouse the man, but in vain; the
him TO pieces, scattering fragments Of bis body
along the track. The remains Of the unfortunate
young man were gathered up by his comrades
and decentlY inferred at their own expense in a
neighboring burial ground. Drury was young
man about eighteen years Of age, and resided
across the Eastern Branch. This occurrence is
rendered more lamentable, from the fact that the
deceased was not addicted to drinking, and was
meyer known to be intoxicated before.
