steps on the bridge. 1t missed its footing, and
became entangied in the open space between
the ties, which was not large enough to admit
the passage of its body, and thus formed q
dangerous obstruction. Soon after, the train

the bridge distance of forty feet. auo 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
