the shaft Of the Crown Point mine, on
Tuesday last, feel sorely aggrieved at
what they consider uaintentional mis-
statements in the newspapers concern
ing the sad occurrence. 10 the first
place, the accident which befel the de-
ceased, was not by his carelessness,
or neglect; but rather al occurrence
unavoidable under the circumstances,
and which is likely to happen At any
time TO any miner similarly occupied.
Mr.. Truscott came to this section about
three years ago, and soon after obtained
work in one of our mines, his valuable
knowledge and experience in mining in
the old country making him a hand in
our mines readily sought after. He was
a sober, a steady, aud an honest man;
and as an affectionate husband 10 =
wife aud little ones who were far oil IN
another land, in providing punctually
for their wants, 40 one could stand
any higher. Nearly all the earnings
OF his hard toll in our mines had been
frugallv stored aud remitted 10 those

10 this his adopted country. But alas,

husband is no morel-his mortal re-

and sad, sad, will be the news when
il reaches that innocent and hopeful
home where live the wife and babes OF
the poor unfortunate whose remains
were laid IN the grave only one day
ago. May our Heavenly Father com-
fort the widow and the fatherless IN
their dread hour of bereavement.
