Devlin was picked up in an unconscious
state, about the same time, and taken to his
home in Manhattauvile. Since the accident
he has hardly spoken, though he seems to
have possession of hissenses. His attending
physicians have little hope of his recovery,
as they fear his skull is fractured. He was
formerly City Chamberlain, and is one Of
the most prominent lawyers and politicians
in the city. Cagger came here from Albany
to attend the convention, last week, and was
one Of the leading spirits of the party. His
remains will be sent home this evening for
interment. The horses and buggy belonged
to Deviin; they were very gentle, having
been driven by him for several years.
