NARROW ESCAPE OF A RAILROAD TRAIN
The passenger train on the Orange and Alex
audria Railroad, which left Lynchburg last
Monday night for this city, escaped an accident
very narrowly, at Rockish bridge. The
Lynchburg News has the following account of
the incident "A man rode his horse upon
the bridge, which is an open one, and when
the animal had gotten some thirty or forty
steps on the bridge, it missed its footing, and
became eutangled in the open space between
the ties, which was not large enough to admit
the passage Of its body, and thus formed a
dangerous obstruction. Soon after, the train
came laundering along at the rate Of twenty
five miles an hour, but most fortunately for
the safety of all on board, the engineer dis.
covered the danger only in time to stop the
train when it had reached within few feet of
the spot. Had the train struck the horse, it
is most certain that it would have been thrown
from the bridge distance of forty feet, and
many lives would have been sacrificed. The
hands on the train, assisted by the passengers,
threw the horse from the bridge into the river,
no other means of getting him out of the way
being possible, and upon searching about for
the owner of the animal, found him asleep in
ditch 90 the side of the road, near the end of
the Bridge.

and all the excursionists expressed themselves
as highly pleased with their trip. The Wash

says "What might be called by some a
pleasing episode occurred while the party re-
manned in the city. A Mr.. Perry and Miss
Marshall having decided on the trip up that it
was "not good for man or woman) to be
alone, concluded to make Washington their
